In general, the Transition elements exhibit their highest oxidation states in their compounds with elements like:

A

C

B

S

C

S and P

D

F and O

Text Solution

Verified by Experts

The correct Answer is:
D
It is because the unpairing of electrons in d-orbitals require a very high ionisation energy which is not available under bond forming condition.Therefore, transition metal form covalent compounds by simple sharing of electrons with more electronegative O and F.
