Answer:

Lanthanides are the rare earth elements of the modern periodic table i.e. the elements with atomic numbers from 58 to 71 following the element Lanthanum. They are called rare earth metals since the occurrence of these elements is very small (3×10-4 % of Earth’s crust). They are available in ‘monazite’ sand’ as lanthanide orthophosphates. The term ‘lanthanide’ was first introduced by the Norwegian mineralogist Victor Goldschmidt in the year 1925. The lanthanide family consists of fifteen metallic elements (from lanthanum to lutetium), all but one of which are f-block elements. The valence electrons of these elements lie in the 4f orbital. Lanthanum, however, is a d-block element with an electronic configuration of [Xe]5d16s2.

The lanthanides are highly dense elements, with densities ranging from roughly 6.1 to 9.8 grams per cubic centimetre. Like most metals, these elements have very high melting points (ranging from roughly 800 to 1600 degrees Celsius) and very high boiling points (ranging from roughly 1200 to 3500 degrees Celsius). All of the lanthanides are known to form Ln3+ cations.
