The correct Answer is:
To determine which of the given options belongs to the d-block elements, we need to analyze the electron configurations provided in the options. The d-block elements are characterized by having their last electrons entering the d subshell, and their general electronic configuration can be represented as: \[ n - 1 d^{1-10} n s^{0-2} \] where \( n \) is the principal quantum number. ### Step-by-Step Solution: 1. **Identify the Options**: Let's denote the options as follows: - Option A: Rn 6d10 7h2 7p2 - Option B: Rn 5f14 6d10 - Option C: Rn 7s2 7p2 - Option D: Rn 6d5 7s2 2. **Analyze Each Option**: - **Option A**: Rn 6d10 7h2 7p2 - The last electrons enter the 7p subshell, indicating this is a p-block element. - **Option B**: Rn 5f14 6d10 - The last electrons enter the 6d subshell, indicating this is a d-block element. - **Option C**: Rn 7s2 7p2 - The last electrons enter the 7p subshell, indicating this is a p-block element. - **Option D**: Rn 6d5 7s2 - The last electrons enter the 6d subshell, indicating this is a d-block element. 3. **Conclusion**: From the analysis, we see that both Option B and Option D have their last electrons entering the d subshell. However, since the question asks for which of the following belongs to the d-block element, we can conclude that: - **Correct Answer**: Option D (Rn 6d5 7s2) is the most straightforward representation of a d-block element. ### Final Answer: **Option D** belongs to the d-block elements.
