Test: F-Block elements - Question 1

The most basic hydroxide among the following is

Detailed Solution for Test: F-Block elements - Question 1

Basicity is a measure of the ease at which an atom will lose electron. For the lanthanides, the basicity decreases as the atomic number increases.

The order of the basicity for the lanthanides are

and also is less stable than and thus it will readily accept convert into and so it will less basic than .

Hence, from all above observations it can be concluded that is most basic among all given options.

Test: F-Block elements - Question 2

Statement I : Many trivalent lanthanide ions are coloured both in solid state and in aqueous solution.

Statement II : Colour of these ions is due to the presence of f-electrons.

Detailed Solution for Test: F-Block elements - Question 2

Many trivalent lanthanide ions are coloured due to the presence of f-electrons, in solid state as well as in aqueous solutions.

Detailed Solution for Test: F-Block elements - Question 7

The configurations of is (4f)" while that of is . They are expected to be colomicis.

Test: F-Block elements - Question 8

Gadolinium (atomic number = 64) is a member of 4f series. It's electronic configuration in +3 oxidation state is [Xe] 4f7. What is the ground state electronic configuration of gadolinium?

Detailed Solution for Test: F-Block elements - Question 8

The atomic number of gadolinium is 64 . Electronic configuration is [Xe]

Test: F-Block elements - Question 9

Which of the following trivalent ion has the largest atomic radii in the lanthanide series

Detailed Solution for Test: F-Block elements - Question 9

Lanthanum is the first element of lanthanide series so size decreases with increase in atomic number so La has the largest atomic radi.

Test: F-Block elements - Question 10
Lanthanum is gouped with block elements because
Detailed Solution for Test: F-Block elements - Question 10
It has partially filled f-orbitals. because, forbitals of electron shell are filled with " ". and deu to electronic configuration.
Test: F-Block elements - Question 11
Which element among the lanthandes has the smallest atomic radius?
Detailed Solution for Test: F-Block elements - Question 11
Lutetium is the last element of lanthanides. Due to lanthanide contraction it has the smallest size.
Test: F-Block elements - Question 12
Which of the following can act as oxidising agent?
Detailed Solution for Test: F-Block elements - Question 12
Ce has tendency to go over to and hence acts as oxidiring agent.
Test: F-Block elements - Question 13
Which of the following species has maximum tendency to form complexes?
Detailed Solution for Test: F-Block elements - Question 13
being smallest (due to lanthanide contraction) has maximum tendency to form complexes.
Test: F-Block elements - Question 14

From the list given below, the number of lanthanides which exhibit +4 state in their oxides is Pr, Nd, Pm, Sm, Eu, Gd, Tb, Dy

Detailed Solution for Test: F-Block elements - Question 14

Pr, Nd, Tb and Dy exhibit +4 state in their oxides as they acquire configurations closer to stable 4f and 4f7 configurations.

Test: F-Block elements - Question 15
(trivalent lanthanides ions) have E.C.
Detailed Solution for Test: F-Block elements - Question 15
Lanthanides have configuration of
So their trivalent ion have configuration of to
