Why do transition metals have different oxidation states according to d and f-Block elements Class 12 Chemistry Chapter 4 CBSE notes ?
Answer (1)
Because the energy difference between the (n-1) d-orbital and the ns-orbital is so small, transition elements have a wide range of oxidation states. Because the orbitals have such a little energy difference, both energy levels can be utilized to establish a bond.
