Is Lutetium a lanthanoid? On some periodic tables, Lutetium (Lu) is on the far right of the f block and on some it is on the d block between barium and hafnium, so is Lu a transition metal or a lanthanoid?
What about lawrencium (La)?
Also, When someone asks about group 3, do they refer to the group that is the 3rd group across the periodic table, in the d block, or group 3a (group 13) that is in the p-block?
