Larger number of oxidation states are exhibited by the actinoids than those by the lanthanoids, the main reason being :
A
4f orbitals more diffused than the 5f orbitals
B
lesser energy difference between 5f and 6d than between 4f and 5d orbitals
C
more energy difference between 5f and 6d than between 4f and 5d orbitals
D
more reactive nature of the actinoids than the lanthanoids

Amount of oxalic acid present in a solution can be determined by its titration with $$KMn{O_4}$$ solution in the presence of $${H_2}S{O_4}.$$ The titration gives unsatisfactory result when carried out in the presence of $$HCl,$$ because $$HCl$$ :
A
gets oxidised by oxalic acid to chlorine
B
furnishes $${H^ + }$$ ions in addition to those from oxalic acid
C
reduces permanganate to $$M{n^{2 + }}$$
D
oxaidises oxalic acid to carbon doxide and water
