$Sc$

Vedclass · Answer

(D) The transition elements exhibit variable oxidation states due to the participation of $(n-1)d$ and $ns$ electrons in bonding. $Sc$ (Scandium) has the atomic number $21$ and its electronic configuration is $[Ar] 3d^1 4s^2$. It only exhibits a $+3$ oxidation state because after losing three electrons,it achieves the stable noble gas configuration of Argon $([Ar])$. $Mn$,$Cr$,and $Fe$ are transition metals that exhibit multiple oxidation states.
