c. nitrogen, heat

उत्तर
- Action of water on lanthanoids: Reaction of water with lanthanoids gives ionic and basic lanthanide hydroxides (Ln(OH)3) with liberation of H2 gas.
Ln + 3H2O → Ln(OH)3 + 3H2 - Action of sulphur on lanthanoids: Heating of sulphur with
lanthanoids gives lanthanide sulphide (Ln2S3).
\[\ce{2Ln + 3S ->[\Delta] Ln2S3}\] - Action of nitrogen on lanthanoids: Reaction of nitrogen with lanthanoide gives lanthanide nitride (LnN).
\[\ce{2Ln + N2 ->[\Delta] 2LnN}\]
