Actinoids in general show more oxidation states than the lanthanoids. The main reason for this is

Assertion : Lanthanoids show a limited of ixidation states wheres actanoids show a large number of oxidation states. Reason : Energy gap between 4f, 5d and 6s subshells is small wheras that between 5f, 6d and 7s subshell is large.

STATEMENT-1: U can show oxidation state +6 STATEMENT-2: Uranium is a radioactive element STATEMENT-3: Uranium is lanthanoid

Statement 1 : Energy gap between 4f, 5d and 6s subshells is small whereas that between 5f, 6d and 7s subshells is large. Statement 2 : Langhanoides show a limited number of oxidation state whereas actinoids show a large number of oxiation states.

The actinoids exhibit more number of oxidation states in general than the lanthanoids. This is because

Assertion: Actinoids show greater number of oxidation states than lanthanoids. Reason: Actinoids are radioactive.
