The chemical similarity between hafnium and zirconium is based on the electron structure of these elements. Both appear below titanium in the Group 4 transition metals, and the electron structure of their outer or valence shells is similar.

Which is smaller titanium or zirconium?

Do you think at atomic radius ? Zr calculated atomic radius: 206 pm, Hf calculated atomic radius: 208 pm. Or atomic mass? Zr: 91,224, Hf: 178,49.


Zr and Hf almost show same chemical properties?

Zirconium (Zr) and hafnium (Hf) are located next to each other in the periodic table, which results in them having similar chemical properties. They both have similar atomic structures and valence electron configurations, leading to comparable reactivity and bonding characteristics. This similarity in chemical behavior makes it challenging to separate the two elements from each other in many chemical processes.
