Silver atom has completely filld d-orbit...

Silver atom has completely filld d-orbitals `(4^(10))` in its ground state. How can you say that it is a transition element?

Text Solution

Verified by Experts

Silver (Z=47) in (+2) oxidation state has incompletely filld 4d orbitals. Hence, it is a transition elements.
`""_(47)Ag: [Kr] 4d^(10) 5s^(1) " " ""_(47)Ag^(+) : [Kr] 4d^(10) 5s^(0)`
`""_(47)Ag^(2+): [Kr] 4d^(9) 5s^(0)`
