D and F Block Elements Class 12 Notes

The elements which are present between s and p-block elements in the modern periodic table are called transition elements. Transition elements have partly filled (n-1) d-orbitals. In transition elements, the last electron enters penultimate d orbitals i.e. (n-1) d-orbitals and that is why they are called d-block elements. Know More about these in D and F Block Elements Class 12 Notes.
