How would you account for the following?
Transition metals exhibit variable oxidation states.

उत्तर
(i) The variable oxidation states of transition elements are due to the participation of ns and (n−1)d-electrons in bonding. Lower oxidation state is exhibited when ns-electrons take part in bonding. Higher oxidation states are exhibited when (n − 1) d-electrons take part in bonding.
