Given that the metal has a configuration of [Ar]3d⁵ in its +3 oxidation state.
It gives us a clue that 3 electrons have been removed from the transition metal.
If we keep the 3 electrons which were removed, we get the configuration as [Ar]4s² 3d⁶
Therefore, clearly the element is 'Iron' with atomic number 26.

yess correct .. thanku

I hd one more question
should i ask here or post it again
oh i got it

3d5 hence it's atomic no is 25 ie electron
but it has +3 oxidation state so there are in all 25+3 protons=28 but e were removed from 4s orbital hence 28-2=26
answer is 26

answer is 26
no the ans is 26 .. i was also confused in this
"4s2 3d5" means atomic number is 25
[Ar] doesn't have 4s subshell
yes i know
actually i have just now passed 10
