The electronic configuration of an element is `3d^(5)4s^(2)`. Mention the highest oxidation state of the element.

Text Solution

Verified by Experts

For transition elements of 3d series, highest oxidation state of any element = No. of electrons in the 3d-subshell + No. of electrons in the 4s-subshell `= 2+5=7`.
