Current Question (ID: 21557)

Question:
$\text{The most common oxidation state of Lanthanoid elements is } +3. \text{ Which of the following is likely to deviate easily from } +3 \text{ oxidation state?}$ $1. \text{Ce(At. No. 58)}$ $2. \text{La(At. No. 57)}$ $3. \text{Lu(At. No. 71)}$ $4. \text{Gd(At. No. 64)}$
Options:
  • 1. $\text{Ce(At. No. 58)}$
  • 2. $\text{La(At. No. 57)}$
  • 3. $\text{Lu(At. No. 71)}$
  • 4. $\text{Gd(At. No. 64)}$
Solution:
$\text{Hint: } \text{Ce}^{3+} = [\text{Xe}]4f^15 d^0$ $\text{Ce} \rightarrow [\text{Xe}]4f^15 d^16 s^2$ $\text{Ce}^{+4} \rightarrow [\text{Xe}]4f^05 d^06 s^0$ $\text{Cerium in } +4 \text{ oxidation state acquires inert gas configuration.}$
