ChemistryEasy158×since 2002Q805Larger number of oxidation states are exhibited by the actinoids than those by the lanthanoids, the main reason being :A4f orbitals more diffused than the 5f orbitalsBlesser energy difference between 5f and 6d than between 4f and 5d orbitalsCmore energy difference between 5f and 6d than between 4f and 5d orbitalsDmore reactive nature of the actinoids than the lanthanoidsCheck answerSkip
