The radius of La 3+ (Atomic number of La=57 ) is 1.06 Å. Which one of the following given values will be closest to the radius of Lu 3+(Atomic number of Lu=71) ?

Options:

Answer:
D
Solution:

Due to lanthanide contraction , the ionic radii of Ln 3+ ( lanthanide ions ) decreases from La 3+ to Lu 3+ . Thus the lowest value ( here 0.85  A ∘ is the ionic radius of Lu 3+ .
