There are five states of matter out of which we encounter three states of matter in our day today life
a) gas b) solid and c) liquid
the main difference between the three is of
a) Inter molecular forces of attraction
b) thermal energy
due to this
a) solid has high intermolecular forces and low thermal energy: thus they have fix shape and occupy fix volume
b) liquid has intermediate forces and medium themal energy. Thus they may have fixed volume and but no fix shape
c) gas has weak intermoelcular forces and high thermal energy. thus they have no fixed volume no fix shape
so in the given problem
the state of the substance D- Gas.
I'm not exactly sure which one but I do know that an acid and a base react in a aqueous solution to form water, so i would probably eliminate the ones that aren't aqueous solutions.
The answer is b) the highest occupied orbital is a “d”orbital.
Transition metals are metals where the highest energy electrons partially fill the d subshells. There are some elements with complete d subshells but on forming cations they have incomplete d subshells.
These transition metals have some properties that are different from the other metals .
