Question

================================================================

● Why Zn ,Cd and Hg are not considered as transition elements ?
● Calculate magnetic moment of an element having atomic no.25 in divalent state.

================================================================​

Answer 1

Explanation:

condition for transition element is its d shell should be less filled

An,CD,Hg has d shell fully filled

so they therefore are not included in transition element

Answer 2

Hey dear

The electronic configuration of Zn , Cd and Hg are represented by the ,general formula ( n-1 ) d10 ns2 . The orbitals in this elements are completely filled in the ground state as well as in their common oxidation states . Therefore , they are not regarded as transition elements .
