Why the elements of d-block is called as transition elements?? |
| Answer» The position of d-block elements is in between the s-block and p-block elements in the periodic table. These d-block elements are called transition elements because they exhibit transitional behaviour between s-block and p-block elements. Their properties are transitional between highly reactive metallic elements of s-block which are typically ionic compounds and the elements of p-block which are largely covalent. | |
