D orbitals in transition elements are more influenced by the surroundings than s and p orbitals.
B
In transition elements, d orbitals are completely filled in their common oxidation states.
C
D orbitals have no role in the magnetic and electronic properties of transition elements.
D
Transition elements do not participate in the formation of metallic bonds using d orbitals.
Correct Answer
Option A
Detailed Explanation
The d orbitals of transition elements protrude more than s and p orbitals, making them more influenced by their surroundings, as mentioned in the NCERT context.
