Answer & Solution

Correct Answer

(D) \({ }^{57} \mathrm{La},{ }^{71} \mathrm{Lu}\)

Step-by-step Solution

Detailed explanation

\({ }^{57} \mathrm{La}\) and \({ }^{71}\) Lu have \(d^1\) electronic configuration. Electronic configuration of \({ }^{57} \mathrm{La}=\left[{ }^{54} \mathrm{Xe}\right] 5 d^1 6 s^2\) Electronic configuration of \({ }^{71} \mathrm{Lu}=\left[{ }^{54}\right] 4 f^{14} 5 d^1\)
