Question

Illustrate by taking examples of transition elements and non-transition elements that oxidation states of elements are largely based on electronic configuration., Transition elements exhibit variable oxidation states due to the availability of multiple valence electrons., Non-transition elements have fixed oxidation states as their valence electrons are not involved in bonding., Both transition and non-transition elements show fixed oxidation states regardless of their electronic configuration., Oxidation states of elements are determined solely by their position in the periodic table.

MARKS App · Accepted Answer

Correct Option is : (A) Transition elements exhibit variable oxidation states due to the availability of multiple valence electrons.
