The incorrect statement among the following is:

Most of the trivalent Lanthanoid ions are colorless in the solid state.

Actinoid contraction is greater for element to element than Lanthanoid contraction.

Lanthanoids are good conductors of heat and electricity.

Actinoids are highly reactive metals, especially when finely divided.

Zr ( Z = 40 ) and Hf ( Z = 72 ) have similar atomic and ionic radii because of:

having similar chemical properties

Reason of lanthanoid contraction is:

Negligible screening effect of 'f’ orbitals
