CHXI03:CLASSIFICATION OF ELEMENTS AND PERIODICITY IN PROPERTIES
313024
Assertion :
Chemistry of actinoids is more complicated than lanthanoids.
Reason :
Actinoid elements are radioactive.
1 Both Assertion and Reason are correct and Reason is the correct explanation of the Assertion.
2 Both Assertion and Reason are correct but Reason is not the correct explanation of the Assertion.
3 Assertion is correct but Reason is incorrect.
4 Assertion is incorrect but Reason is correct.
Explanation:
A large number of oxidation states are possible for actinides due to which they have complex chemistry. So option (2) is correct.
