Answer: The transition elements are in the d-block, and in the d-orbital have valence electrons. They can form several states of oxidation and contain different ions. Inner transition elements are in the f-block, and in the f-orbital have valence electrons.

Explanation: Atoms are the building blocks of all matter. They consist of three sub-atomic particles: protons, neutrons and electrons. Protons and neutrons are found in the nucleus of an atom. Electrons are found in energy levels around the nucleus as shown in the diagram representing a carbon atom with 6 protons, 6 neutrons and 6 electrons.

Proton Nucleus 1 +1
Neutron Nucleus 1 0
Electron Outside the nucleus 1/1840 -1

In chemistry we are particularly interested in electrons. As you will see later, this is because chemical reactions involve the rearrangement of electrons. Nuclei of atoms (protons and neutrons) usually remain unchanged (except in radioactive decay).
Electrons are arranged in atoms according to their energies. This is called the electronic structure or electronic configuration of the atom. A crude but still useful model says the electrons can be in different energy levels. Electrons in a particular energy level all have the same energy as one another. The lowest energy level can accommodate up to 2 electrons. The second level can accommodate up to 8 electrons. The third level can accommodate up to 18 electrons. The diagram shows the situation for a sulfur atom.

Explanation: Pls mark me brainiest pls
I'm not sure but I think it is C. CrO3
Answer:
One way is through fossil fuels. When people burn fossil fuels it enters the atmosphere as carbon dioxide gas. Another way is through animals. Most animals exhale carbon dioxide as a waste product which gets into the atmosphere.
