Relativistic effects (1)
General: increase of the mass with increasing velocity
At heavy elements: Increasing nuclear charge plays as the “accelerator” of the velocity of electrons.
Electrons near the nucleus are attracted closer to the nucleus and move there with high velocity. mass increase of the inner electrons and the contraction of the inner electron orbitals (Bohr radius)

Relativistic effects (2)
Electrons further away from the nucleus are better screened from the nuclear charge by the inner electrons and consequently the orbitals of the outer electrons expand. Indirect relativistic effects
It is expected that transactinide elements would show a drastic rearrangement of electrons in their atomic ground states, and as the electron configuration is responsible for the chemical behavior of elements, such relativistic effects can lead to surprising chemical properties.
Increasing deviations from the periodicity of chemical properties based on extrapolation from lighter homologues in the Periodic table are predicted.

Atom-at-a-time chemistryAtom-at-a-time chemistryThe transactinide elements must be produced at accelerators using reactions of heavy-ion beams with heavy target materials.
Because of the short half-lives and the low production rates of the transactinide nuclides, each atom produced decays before a new atom is synthesized.
Any chemistry to be performed must be done on an "atom-at-a-time" basis.
Rapid, very efficient and selective chemical procedures are indispensable to isolate desired transactinides.

Increasing deviations from the periodicity of the chemical properties based on extrapolations from the lighter homologues are predicted.
Experimental approach should involve detailed comparison of the chemical properties of the transactinides with those of their lighter homologues under identical conditions.
We have investigated the chemical properties of Rf together with the lighter homologues Zr and Hf under the same on-line experiments.

Conclusion
Large difference in the fluoride complex formation of Rffluoride complex formation of Rf and the lighter homologues Zr and Hf Fluoride complex formation: Rf < Zr ≈ Hf
According to the HSAB (Hard and Soft Acids and Bases) concept, the fluoride anion is a hard anion and interacts stronger with (hard) small cations. Thus, a weaker fluoride complex formation of Rf as compared to those of Zr and Hf would be reasonable if the size of the Rf4+ ion is larger than those of Zr4+ and Hf4+ as predicted with relativistic molecular calculations.

Actinide contraction: The radii of the actinide ions (An3+) are observed to decrease with increasing positive charge of the nucleus. This contraction is a consequence of the addition of successive electrons to an inner f electron shell, so that the imperfect screening of the increasing nuclear charge by the additional f electron results in a contraction of the outer or valence orbital.

Assuming that the adsorption equilibrium of an ion MF4+n n– can be represented by the
equation,
Rn-MF4+n + nHF2– ⇔ nR-HF2 + MF4+n
n–
(where R represents the resin), one obtains the mass action constant
The distribution coefficient Kd is expressed as
Thus, the following equation is deduced
For tracer solutions, the following simplification will be assumed using the constant c
