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

Text Solution

Verified by Experts

Outer electronic configuration of Ag (Z=47) is `4d^10 5s^1` . In addition to +1, it shows an oxidation state of+2. In +2 oxidation state E.C. is `d^9` i.e d-subshell is incompletely filled. Hence it is a transition metal.
