Question
Electronic energies in these elements are measured by differential of quanta, or Dq. These elements’ orbitals are renamed for two gerade (“juh-RAW-duh”) symmetry groups when they bond along the coordinate axes and separate by an energy gap symbolized delta. One of these elements is the first exception to the Aufbau principle because it loses a valence electron at quantum number n to half-fill the (*) “n minus 1” subshell. Visible light excites electronic transitions in these elements to give their ions color. An 18-electron rule replaces the octet rule for these elements, the first to fill the five “L equals 2” orbitals. These elements bond to ligands in coordination complexes. For 10 points, the d-block comprises what elements in the center of the periodic table? ■END■
