General electronic configuration of actionoids is [Rn] 5f^(1-14) 6d^(0-1) 7s^2 . Which of the following actionoids have one electron in 6d orbital ?

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