The reason for greater range of oxidation states in actinoids is attributed to

Answer»

the radioactive NUMBER of actinoids
actinoid contraction
5f,6d and 7s LEVELS having comparable energies
4f and 5D levels being close in energies

Solution :The greater range of oxidation states shown by actinoids is DUE to 5f,6d and 7s levels having comparable energies and thus all their electrons can take part in BOND formation.
