Among s-block metals and transition metals, transition metals are more metallic ( Option b).
- Transition metals are those elements that have partially filled d orbitals. these elements have the properties in between those s block and p block elements.
- S block elements have only 1 or 2 unpaired electrons in their valence shell.
- While transition metals have more unpaired electrons in the d orbital for bonding increasing the electron present in the crystal lattice.
- The presence of unpaired electrons leads to the formation of metal-metal covalent bonds along with the metallic bonds, thus increasing the metallic character.
Hence, Transition metals are more metallic than S block metals.
