The lanthanoid contraction is responsible for the fact that

  • Zn and Y have about same radius

  • Zr and Nb have similar oxidation states

  • Zr and Hf have about the same radius

  • Zr and Zn have the same oxidation state


C.

Zr and Hf have about the same radius

Due to lanthanoid contraction the size of zirconium (Zr) and hafnium (Hf) are almost similar and hence, they are called chemical twins.
