The d-And-f-Block Elements

Short Answer Type

31.

Which element shows the highest oxidation state among the d-block elements?

387 Views

32. What is the reason of transition elements to exhibit variable oxidation states?

The energy difference between (n – 1) d and ns orbitals is very small which makes (n – 1) d orbital electrons to participate in reaction because of which the transition elements shows variable oxidation states.
