Which of the following set of ions act as oxidising agents?

  1. A
    Ce4+\mathrm{Ce}^{4+}Ce4+ and Tb4+\mathrm{Tb}^{4+}Tb4+
  2. B
    La3+\mathrm{La}^{3+}La3+ and Lu3+\mathrm{Lu}^{3+}Lu3+
  3. C
    Eu2+\mathrm{Eu}^{2+}Eu2+ and Yb2+\mathrm{Yb}^{2+}Yb2+
  4. D
    Eu2+\mathrm{Eu}^{2+}Eu2+ and Tb4+\mathrm{Tb}^{4+}Tb4+

Correct answer: A

Most stable oxidation state of lanthanoids is +3

$\mathrm{Ce}^{4+}$ and $\mathrm{Tb}^{4+}$ will get reduced easily and will be good oxidising agents.
