About Lanthanum

The first element of the lanthanide series, lanthanum (La) gives the entire family of rare earths its name, from the Greek for to lie hidden. Element 57 falls in period 6 of the f-block, with an atomic mass of 138.91, the electron configuration [Xe] 5d¹ 6s², and a low Pauling electronegativity of 1.1. A soft, silvery, reactive metal, it is used in high-refractive-index optical glass for camera and telescope lenses, as a catalyst in petroleum refining, and in the electrodes of nickel-metal-hydride batteries. Lanthanum is solid at standard conditions and typically adopts the +3 state shared across the series.
