Q. No.Given below are two statements:
| Assertion (A): | Ionisation enthalpies of early actinoids are lower than for early lanthanoids. |
| Reason (R): | Electrons are entering 5f orbitals in actinoids which experience greater shielding from nuclear charge. |
| 1. | Both (A) and (R) are True and (R) is the correct explanation of (A). |
| 2. | Both (A) and (R) are True but (R) is not the correct explanation of (A). |
| 3. | (A) is True but (R) is False. |
| 4. | (A) is False but (R) is True. |

Actinoids exhibit more number of oxidation states than lanthanoids. It is because of:
| 1. | The greater metallic character of the lanthanoids than that of the corresponding actinoids. |
| 2. | More energy difference between 5f and 6d orbitals than that between 4f and 5d orbitals. |
| 3. | The lesser energy difference between 5f and 6d orbitals than that between 4f and 5d orbitals. |
| 4. | More active nature of the actinoids. |
