Detailed Solution

Basicity of hydroxides of lanthanides decreases from La to Lu.

Reason: Due to Lanthanide contraction the Ln+3 ion sizes from La to Lu decreases, hence Ln-OH bond length decreases, bond strength increases, ionisation of  Ln-OH bond  decreases(ionic character decreases) from LaOH3 to LuOH3
