definition of transition elements:

transition elements are defined as elements which form at least one ion with a partly filled d shell

while in zinc the electronic configuration is

[Ar]3d^10} it completely fill the d shell not

of transition elements

while it forms zn^2+ ion and this doesn't satisfy the definition of the transition elements
