Which of the following is a transitional element
  • A
    $Al$
  • B
    $As$
  • $Ni$
  • D
    $Rb$

Answer

Correct option: C.
$Ni$
c
Hint: A transition metal contains partially filled d- subshell and has the configuration $( n -1) d ^{1-10} ns ^2$

Explanation:

The electronic configuration of nickel is $[ Ar ] 3 d ^8 4 s ^2$ which is in sync with the general electronic configuration of a transition element $(n-1) d^{1-10} ns ^2$.

Aluminum, arsenic, and lead don't possess the required configuration so they are not the transition elements.

The electronic configuration of Nickel is $[ Ar ] 3 d ^8 4 s ^2$. So it is a transition element.
