Recall the definition of lanthanoids
Lanthanoids are the elements with atomic numbers from 58 to 71, i.e. the elements following lanthanum in which the subshell is progressively filled. Commonly included are:
-
Check each given element
- (Europium): lanthanoid
- (Curium): not a lanthanoid; it is an actinoid
- (Erbium): lanthanoid
- (Terbium): lanthanoid
- (Ytterbium): lanthanoid
- (Lutetium): lanthanoid
-
Count the elements that are not lanthanoids
Only is not a lanthanoid.
Therefore, the number of elements that do not belong to lanthanoids is
-
Match with the options
Option B: 1 is correct.
