Lanthanides are associated with the filling of 4f-orbitals while actinides are engaged with the filling of 5f-orbitals. The coupling energy of 4f-electrons is nearly not as much as that of 5f-electrons. The protecting impact of 5f-electrons is less powerful when contrasted with that of 4f-electrons. 

Lanthanides are involved in the filling of 4f-orbitals whereas actinides are involved in the filling of 5f-orbitals. The binding energy of 4f-electrons is comparatively less than that of 5f-electrons. The shielding effect of 5f-electrons is less effective as compared to that of 4f-electrons.

The magnetic properties of the lanthanides are due to the electrons in the partial filled 4f shell. The magnetic properties of the first-row actinides are due to the electrons in the partial filled 5f shell.

why the Lanthanides and Actinides moved to the bottom of the periodic table?

Lanthanide group is similar in chemical structure tothe lanthanum (the same with the actinides),in order that the table would have a compact form they were moved down from table. This...

8. Some of the lanthanides and actinides besides showing + 3 oxidation state also show other oxidation states. Which other factors may be responsible for this?

small size of 5f-orbitals;screening effect of f-orbitals by external electrons;the possibility of transition of electrons from 5f-orbitals to 6d;hybridization option.

The Russel-Saunders coupling is not valid for actinides. What coupling scheme could be more appropriate actinides and why?

The Russel-Saunders coupling is mainly applied to the light atoms with atomic number less then 57. To get some better wave function approximation, j-j-coupling must be applied. Thus, actinides possess...

What is the electropositive character of lanthanides?

The lanthanides are some of the largest non-radioactive metals in the periodic table. ... The lanthanides are quite electropositive and as such have a high affinity for oxygen and the...

why molar magnetic susceptibility of actinides is lesser than lanthanides.

This is because electrons of actinides are less effectively shielded which results in quenching of the orbital contribution.

Why 5d is less in energy than 4f in lanthanides?

Orbitals fill in order of energy. So 5D fills before 4F in some cases simply because the 5D energy levels are lower than the 4F levels for some. This does...

Explain why the amount of barium suldatw precipitate remains constant for the last four samples tested even though more barium chloride is being added.

Barium chloride solution is added in excess to precipitate barium sulfate, and the precipitate is digested in the hot solution. The precipitate is filtered through a paper filter which is...
