9. (i) What are actinoids? Explain the oxidation states ofactinoids.

Answer»

Actinides show a variety of oxidation states from +3 to +6. This is due to the very small energy gap between5f, 6d and 7s sub shells. The principal oxidation states are +3 and +4 and +3 oxidation state is the most stable. The +4 oxidation state is the most stable in Th andPu.
