Group VIB of transition elements contains___________________?
Correct answer: C. Cr Mo W
- A. Zn Cd Hg
- B. Fe Ru Os
- C. Cr Mo W
- D. Mn Te Re
Explanation
Group VIB in the older notation corresponds to group 6, whose transition elements are chromium, molybdenum and tungsten, written as Cr, Mo and W. Their d-block positions place them in the same vertical group. The likely mistake is choosing Fe, Ru and Os, which belong to group VIIIB in the older notation.

About Electronic Structure of d-Block Elements
The electronic structure of d-block elements covers the filling of the (n-1)d and ns orbitals, general electronic configurations, and the exceptions shown by chromium and copper. It explains how partially filled d orbitals produce variable oxidation states, coloured ions, magnetic behaviour and complex formation, while distinguishing transition elements from elements with completely filled d subshells.
