On the basis of lanthanoid contraction, explain the following :
Stability of the complexes of lanthanoids.

Text Solution

Verified by Experts

As the size of lanthanoids decreases (on increasing atomic number), charge to radius ratio (i.e., charge density) increases and hence, stability of the complexes increases.
