Differences in Lanthanides and Actinides

1) The lanthanides and actinides are blocks of elements in the periodic table that include lanthanum and actinium respectively. 2) The chemistry of the actinides is more difficult than the lanthanides due to their wider range of oxidation states and their radioactive nature. 3) The lanthanide ions are trivalent and colored in both solid and aqueous solutions, due to the lanthanide contraction effect where they have identical ionic radii.
