Q131 / 200 · MHT CET - Medical 2026 (25 April Shift 1) · Chemistry

Identify the series of elements so that all the elements in it are radioactive in nature.

  • A
    Lanthanide
  • Correct answer
    B
    Actinoids
  • C
    p block elements
  • D
    Transition elements

Solution

Actinoids are the series of elements with atomic numbers from $89$ to $103$. All the elements in the actinoid series are radioactive in nature.

In contrast, only promethium ($Pm$) is radioactive among the lanthanides. The p-block and transition elements contain both stable and radioactive elements.

Answer: Actinoids

Hence, the correct answer is option: 'B'.
