Give the general pattern of the paramagnetic moments of lanthanoid ions with the help of a graph.

The paramagnetic moments of lanthanoid ions follow a general pattern known as the "Lanthanide Contraction" or "Lanthanide Series Contraction." This pattern can be explained using a graph of the paramagnetic moments (μ) of lanthanoid ions as a function of their atomic number (Z). Here's a description of the general pattern:
