Element of zone f

Partition of the periodic table
according to periodic table of ele ments The elements in the periodic table are partitioned. They are s area, p area, ds area, f area and d area.
Elements 58~71 in the periodic table are called 4f Inner transition element Elements 90~103 are called transition elements in 5f, and they all belong to elements in f zone. [1]

Element of zone f

edit
Elements 58~71 in the periodic table are called 4f Inner transition element Elements 90~103 are called transition elements in 5f, and they all belong to elements in f zone.
International Union of Pure and Applied Chemistry (IUPAC) suggested that the 14 elements 58~71 should be called lanthanides, but because La is similar to the 14 elements in nature, it is usually included in lanthanides, and elements 89~103 are actinides. [1]

Characteristics of elements in zone f

Announce
edit
Element of zone f refer to periodic table of ele ments In Lanthanide and Actinide element The electrons with the highest energy of most elements are arranged in F Track On. There is little difference in the properties of elements with the same period in this area, which is obvious among the elements of the lanthanide system.

Valence shell electron configuration

The valence electron configuration of the gaseous atoms of lanthanides shows that La is [Xe] 5d one 6s two Ce is [Xe] 4f one 5d one 6s two Gd is [Xe] 4f seven 5d one 6s two , Lu is [Xe] 4f fourteen 5d one 6s two The rest are [Xe] 4f n 6s two Type configuration. [1]

Oxidized state

It is generally believed that the characteristic oxidation state of lanthanides is+3.

Lanthanide shrinkage

It is a general rule that the atomic radius gradually decreases with the increase of atomic number in the same period of the periodic table. The reduction of atomic radius of lanthanides is not obvious, which is called lanthanide contraction.

Valence shell electron configuration

The electronic configuration of element 90 Th is 6d two 7s two There is no 5f electron. Elements 91, 92, 93, and 96 have 5f n-1 6d one 7s two The other elements belong to 5f n 7s two Electronic configuration. [1]

Oxidized state

Each element in the first half from Ac to Am has a variety of oxidation states, of which the most stable oxidation state rises from Ac=+3 to U=+6, and then falls again to Am=+3. The stable oxidation state after Cm is+3, and the most stable oxidation state of No in aqueous solution is+2.

Actinide shrinkage

Similar to actinides, the radius of ions in the same oxidation state of actinides gradually decreases with the increase of atomic number, but the decrease is not significant, which is actinides contraction.
