Because of lanthanoid contraction, which of the
    following pairs of elements have nearly same atomic
    radii ? (Nubmers in the parenthesis are atomic
    numbers).

  • Zr (40) and Nb (41)
  • Zr (40) and Hf (72)
  • Zr (40) and Ta (73)
  • Ti (22) and Zr (40)
  • Explanation:

    Due to lanthanoid contraction
    atomic radii of Zr and Hf is almost similar.
