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

| 2. | The basicity decreases as the ionic radius decreases from Pr to Lu. |
| 3. | All the lanthanons are much more reactive than aluminium. |
| 4. | Ce+4 solutions are widely used as oxidizing agents in volumetric analysis. |
The incorrect statement among the following is:
