To Choose: The correct option.
Answer to Problem 32R
Option D
Explanation of Solution
Introduction:
The periodic table is mainly divided into four groups in which different elements are involved.
The elements in between atomic number Z = 57 (lanthanum) and Z = 72 (hafnium) and between actinium (Z = 89) and rutherfordium (Z = 104) are inner
Elements 58 - 71 which follows lanthanum, are the lanthanides and elements 90 - 103 which follows actinium, are the actinides. Neptunium is (Z = 93) which is following the actinides, lies in the inner transition elements.
Conclusion:
Thus, neptunium is a part of inner transition elements.
