Question

The general electronic configuration of the transition elements is

Answer 1

Electronic configuration

• The distribution of electrons into orbitals of an atom is called its electronic configuration.

General electronic configuration of transition elements

• The elements of groups 3 to 12 are in the centre of the periodic table.
• These are also referred to as d-Block elements.
• The general electronic configuration of transition elements is $(n-1)d^{1-10}n{s}^{1-2}$.
