The lanthanide series comprises the fifteen metallic chemical elements with atomic numbers 57 through 71, from lanthanum through lutetium. These fifteen elements, along with the chemically similar elements scandium and yttrium, are often collectively known as the rare earth elements.
In the Group 3, Period 6 slot, After Barium and prior to Hafnium.

In the steam drum, where steam exits and flows to the superheaters.
Marsden Point Oil Refinery is a refinery located at Marsden Point, Whangarei, Northland, New Zealand. It is the only oil refinery in New Zealand, and is operated by Refining NZ.
Seal pots (sometime called condensate pots) are used to allow a liquid seal between the instrument and flowing gases such as steam. Their function is to keep the liquid level constant in the impulse tubes. For example, in boiler liquid level applications the high pressure (HP) side of a differential pressure transmitter is connected to the vapor space on top of the steam drum. Steam condenses in the chamber or seal pot and fills the impulse line with condensate. The seal pot is located to allow the condensate to drain back to the source thus keeping the liquid level constant.
No. The last refinery was built in 1976 and there are no plans to build any new ones. Existing petroleum refineries are experiencing declining operating revenues and are actually reducing their capacity to around 80%. This is in part due to the economic downturn and in part a result of a continuing downward trend in the refining industry that began in 2005. Imports of refined products are increasing to fill the gap between domestic supply and demand, though even these have declined as overall consumption has dropped from 2005-2008. Hope that helps!

In most wide form periodic tables, the lanthanides are in a row below the normal part of the table, with a reference showing that all the lanthanides correspond to period 6 column 3. Sometimes the lanthanide element with the lowest atomic number, lanthanum itself, is shown in the main table and the other lanthanides in a row below the main table.
the lanthanides and actinides
Wht is the difference between Lanthanides and Actinides?
The 4f series is referred to as the Lanthanides.
describe the complex formation by lanthanides?
Atoms first occupy the 4f level in the Lanthanide series, beginning with Cerium (Ce).
These are the lanthanides or the 4f block; they should include lanthanum were it not for a contraction that lags lanthanum in the d block.
Actinides and lanthanides lose electrons and form cations.
Lanthanides have 6 electron shells. Actinides have 7 electron shells.
Rare Earth elements or lanthanides are placed in the period 6 of the periodic table of Mendeleev. Actinoids are placed in the period 7 of the periodic table of Mendeleev.
