(a) Why is La(OH)_(3) is more basic than Lu(OH)_(3) ? (b) Why ar the properties of third transition series quite similar to second transition series.

Explain the following : (a) Out of Sc^(3+), Co^(2+) " and "Cr^(3+) "ions, only "Sc^(3+) is colourless in aqueous solutions. (Atomic no.: Co =27, Sc = 21 and Cr =24) (b) The E^(@)Cu^(2+)//Cu for copper metal is positive (+0.34), unlike the remaining members of the first transition series.
