In what way is the electronic configuration of the transition elements different from that of the non-transition elements? |
|
Answer» The general electronic configuration of a d-block elements is (n -1) d1-10 ns1-2. Transition elements in its ground state or excited state will have a configuration of (n - 1) d1-9 ns0-2 ie. partly filled d orbitals whereas non transition elements will have a configuration of (n -1) d10 ns0.2 i.e completely filled d- orbitals. |
