(b) d-block
(c) f-block
(d) s-block
Correct Answer:
s-block
Explanation:
Consider Barium having atomic number 56
It’s electronic configuration is 1s²2s²2p⁶3s²3p⁶3d¹⁰4s²4p⁶4d¹⁰5s²5p⁶6s²
It contain 2 electrons in the valence shell, hence it is placed in 2 group of the periodic table that means s-block element.
