Solution
The correct option is A Transition metals
Transition metals have partially filled d- orbitals so, they can easily withdraw the electrons from the reagents or give electrons to them depending on the nature of the reaction. They also have a tendency to show large no. of oxidation states and the ability to form complexes which makes them a good catalyst.
