F – BLOCK ELEMENT
(n-2)f
Introduction
• Penultimate (n -1)d
• prepenultimate (n -2)f
• Inner transition element- e- use is both shell.
• Intermediate behavior like d- block element.
• 2 series of f- block element-
• Lanthanide series – our main topic.
• actinide series- radioactive.
Lanthanide series
• La(57) Ce(58) Pr(59)
• Nd(60) Pm(61) Sm(62)
• Eu(63) Gd(64) Tb(65)
• Dy(66) Ho(67) Er(68)
• Tm(69) Yb(70) Lu(71)
• 14 element is called lanthanide series.
• General electronic configuration 4f1-14 5d0-1 6s2
Ln Greek hidden
Lanthanum, a
“rare earth” is
used in camera
lenses amongst
other things.
Lanthanum is
found in uranium
minerals
Cerium
Sparking light. Also
used in permanent
magnet.
Praseodymium
Praseodymium
Neodymium
Neodymium- strong magnet
Neodymium
Europeium
• Europium is used to
produce blue, red and
white radiances in
computer monitors
and television screens.
It is also used in
energy efficient light
bulbs.

Similarly Ce- 4f1, Pr- 4f2,……… Lu-4f14.(expected)
but observed E.C is not true for all element.
Electronic configuration of
lanthanoids
Oxidation state
• Common oxidation state is +3 more stable.
• Loses of two 6s electron and one 5d or 4f
electron.
• Some either show +2 or +4 Oxidation state.
• Ln [Xe] 4f0 5d1 6s2 and Ln+3 [Xe]4f0 5d0 6s0
Ln, Pm, Ho, Eb, Lu +3
Ce, Pr, Tb, Dy +3, +4

Chemical reactivity of Lanthanids
1. Carbides-C
2. Hydrides- H2
3. Oxides- O2
4. Reaction with nitrogen
5. Reaction with mineral acids
6. Reaction with water
7. Reaction with sulphure
• The first few members of the lanthanoids are
quite reactive and show chemical behaviour
similar to that of calcium. The standard
electrode potentials of the Ln+3/Ln couple
indicate that all the lanthanides are more
reactive than aluminium.
• These metals combine with hydrogen when
heated gently in the gas, and form hydrides of
the type LnH2 and LnH3.
Chemical reactivity of Lanthanids
• lanthanoids (Ln)
Ln + 3H2 → 2LnH3
lanthanoid Hydrogen Lanthanoid hydride
2Ln + 3O2 → 2Ln2O3
lanthanoid Oxygen Lanthanoid Oxide
• The oxide Ln2O3 react with water to form insoluble
hydroxides.
Ln2O3 + 3H2O → 2Ln(OH)3
Ln2O3 + 3CO2 → Ln2(CO3)3
Chemical reactivity of Lanthanids
• On being heated, these elements combine directly with non-metals, and form
carbides with carbon, nitrides with nitrogen, sulphides with sulphur, and halides
with halogens.
• 2773K
Ln + 2C → 2LnC2
lanthanoid carbon Carbide
• Δ
2Ln + N2 → 2LnN
lanthanoid Nitrogen Nitride
Δ
2Ln + 3S → 2Ln2S3
lanthanoid Sulphur Sulphide
Chemical reactivity of Lanthanids
• 2Ln + 3H2O → 2Ln(OH)3 + 3H2
lanthanoid water Halide
• They liberate hydrogen from dilute acids.
Δ
2Ln + 6HX → 2LnX3 + 3H2↑
lanthanoid Nitrogen Halide hydrogen
Chemical reactivity of Lanthanids
Lanthanoid contraction and
its consequences
Lanthanoid contraction
• The gradual decrease in atomic and ionic size of
lanthanoides with increase in atomic number is
called lanthanoide contraction.
• Causes of Lanthanoid contraction-
• As atomic no. increase the positive charge also
increase.
• As atomic no. increase other thing decreases
• Atomic radius= ionic radius > screen effect.
Effects of Lanthanoid contraction
a) Decrease in basicity-(fajan’s principle)
Larger the size of cation, greater is the tendency
of such hydroxides to dissociate(weak bond) and
stronger will be the base(Covalent nature).
• b) Ionic radii of post lanthanoids
• The element which follow the lanthanoids in the
third transition series are known as post
lanthanoids.
• The ionic radii of the element which follow
lanthanium(Hf, Ta, W, etc) are similar to that of
the element of previous period.
• There is normal increase in size Sc to Y to La.
