Lanthanoids and actinoids are f-block elements in which the last electron enters the anti-penultimate energy level. The most common oxidation state of lanthanoids is +3, though +2 and +4 oxidation states are exhibited by some of the elements. In lanthanoid series, there is a progressive decrease in atomic and ionic radii, known as lanthanoid contraction. Unlike lanthanoids, actinoids show a large number of oxidation states. Name two lanthanoids which exhibit +2 oxidation state.
