Question

distinguish between p block and d block elements​

Answer 1

Answer:

This is because the electrons are excited from the s-subshell in p-block elements creating the number of unpaired electrons as 2. In d-block elements, electrons are lost and excited from the d-subshell and not from s-subshell in their second oxidation states.

Answer 2

Answer:

$\huge\mathfrak\pink{Answer:}$

p block elements consist of group 3 to group 8 elements of the periodic table. d block elements are known as the transition metal elements. A p block element is defined as the element where the last electron moves to fill the p orbital of the atom. e.g. for aluminium (a p block element) which has 11 electrons. it has an electronic configuration: [Ne] 3s2 3p1. as seen here, the last electron moves to the p orbital since there isn’t any space in the s orbital of the 3rd shell (s orbitals can hold a max of 2 electrons). The case is similar for d block elements. You may check out this site if you want some further info.

I hope it would help uh out!❤️✌️
