Question

d-block elements form alloys because of:

• A. Large difference in atomic sizes
• B. They have similar atomic sizes
• C. They have vacant p-orbitals
• D. It is easy to mould

Answer 1

The correct option is B

They have similar atomic sizes

The d-block elements form alloys, as the d-block elements have similar atomic sizes due to which atoms of one metal can easily take up position in the crystal lattice of the other.
