Lanthanide Contraction is phenomenon of block:
Correct answer: A. f block
- A. f block
- B. s block
- C. d block
- D. p block
Explanation
Lanthanide Contraction is a phenomenon observed in the lanthanide series (f-block elements). It refers to the gradual decrease in atomic and ionic radii across the lanthanide series due to the poor shielding effect of 4f electrons.

About Transition Elements
Transition elements are identified by their partially filled d subshells in atoms or common ions. The topic covers the electronic structure of d-block elements, including the filling order of 4s and 3d orbitals, variable oxidation states and the distinction between transition elements and elements with completely filled d subshells.
