as a consequence of actinide contraction the radius of the metal atom decreases as the 5f electrons of the actinides are poorly shielded. (Due to this poor shielding it is more strongly attracted by the nuclear charge resulting in decreased radius)
Actinide contraction refers to the decrease in atomic and ionic radii of actinide elements as you move across the actinide series. This phenomenon is due to the poor shielding of the nuclear charge by inner electrons, leading to increased nuclear attraction on outer electrons. The consequences of actinide contraction include increased stability of higher oxidation states and differences in chemical properties compared to the lanthanides.
Hydrogen is a none metal element. atomic number of it is 1.
The lightest naturally occurring actinide on Earth is thorium, which has the atomic number 90. It is a naturally occurring radioactive element found in small amounts in soil and rocks.
The element for the symbol No is Nobelium. It is a radioactive metal that belongs to the actinide series of the periodic table.
One element in the actinide series is thorium (Th), which has an atomic number of 90.
Plutonium is an actinide

Actinide
Th, element 90, spelled thorium, is an actinide and has been used as a nuclear fuel (see Wikipedia.)

URANIUM (:
Uranium
The element that is an actinide and named for the creator of the periodic table is Mendelevium (Md). Mendelevium has atomic number 101 and is named after Dmitri Ivanovich Mendeleev.
Hydrogen is a none metal element. atomic number of it is 1.
The atomic number of thorium, Th, is 90 and it is an inner transition element in the Actinide series. The Actinide series is the second of the two series shown by themselves. It starts Actinium, Thorium, Protactinium, and Uranium, so Thorium is the second element in the Actinide series.
Uranium belongs to the actinide group of elements.
