The elements which show partially filled d-orbitals either ground state or in one or more of their ions, are known as d-block elements or outer transition elements. The properties od d block element are intermediate between s-block elements and p-block elements. They are more electropositive than p-block elements but less electropositive than s-block elements. They form ionic compounds in their lower oxidation state and covalent compounds in higher oxidation states. They are all metals and have electronic configuration ns2, (n-1) d1 to 10
