The transition elements have incompletely filled d-subshells in their ground
state or in any of their oxidation states. The transition elements occupy
positions in-between s- and p-blocks in groups 3-12 of the Periodic table.
Starting from the fourth period, transition elements consist of four complete
series: Sc to Zn, Y to Cd and La, Hf to Hg and Ac, Rf to Cn. In general, the
electronic configuration of outer orbitals of these elements is (n – 1)d1–10 ns0–2.
The electronic configurations of outer orbitals of Zn, Cd, Hg, and Cn are
represented by the general formula(n – 1)d10 ns2. All the transition elements
have typical metallic properties such as high tensile strength, ductility,
malleability. Except for mercury, which is liquid at room temperature, other
transition elements have typical metallic structures. The transition metals and
their compounds also exhibit catalytic property and paramagnetic behavior.
Transition metal also forms alloys. An alloy is a blend of metals prepared by
mixing the components. Alloys may be homogeneous solid solutions in which
the atoms of one metal are distributed randomly among the atoms of the
other.

1. Optical fibre works on the principle of total internal reflection, Light rays can be used to transmit a
huge amount of data, but there is a problem here - the light rays travel in straight lines. So unless we
have a long straight w without any bends at all, harnessing this advantage will be very tedious. Instead,
the optical cables are design such that they bend all the light rays' inwards (using TIR). Light rays travel
continuously, bouncing off the optical fibre walls and transmitting end to end data. It is usually made of
plastic or glass. Modes of transmission Single-mode fibre is used for long-distance transmission, while
multi-mode A shorter distances. The outer cladding of these fibres needs better protection than metal
