उत्तर
The lanthanides that exhibit +2 and +4 states are shown in the given table. The atomic numbers of the elements are given in parentheses.
| +2 | +4 |
| Nd (60) | Ce (58) |
| Sm (62) | Pr (59) |
| Eu (63) | Nd (60) |
| Tm (69) | Tb (65) |
| Yb (70) | Dy (66) |
After forming Ce4+, Ce attains a stable electronic configuration of [Xe].
After forming Tb4+, Tb attains a stable electronic configuration of [Xe] 4f7.
After forming Eu2+, Eu attains a stable electronic configuration of [Xe] 4f7.
After forming Yb2+, Yb attains a stable electronic configuration of [Xe] 4f14.
