The trend of basicity of lanthanoid hydroxides

A

increases across the lanthanoid series

B

decreases across the lanthanoid series

C

first increases and then decreases

D

first decreases and then increases.

Text Solution

Verified by Experts

The correct Answer is:
B

Basicity of lanthanoid hydroxides decreases across the series due to decrease in ionic radii across the series.
