Read the following passage and answer the questions that follow: Modern periodic table
arranges the elements in the increasing order of atomic number. It has 18 groups and 7
periods. Atomic numbers are consecutive in a period and increases in the group in a
pattern. Elements are divided into four blocks, s-block, p-block, d-block, and f-block
based on their electronic configuration. 78% of elements are metals, about 20 elements are
non-metals, and few elements like B, Si, Ge, As are metalloids. Metallic character
increases down the group but decreases along the period from left to right. The physical
and chemical properties vary periodically with their atomic numbers. Periodic trends are
observed in atomic size, ionization enthalpies, electron gain enthalpies, electronegativity,
and valence. Oxides of metals are basic, some are amphoteric. Non-metals form acidic
oxides, some form neutral oxides. s-block elements are soft, highly reactive, do not show
variable oxidation states. p-block elements are metals, non-metals as well as metalloids,
show variable oxidation states, exist as solids, liquids, and gases. d-block elements are
metals, form coloured ions, show variable oxidation states, have high melting and boiling
points. Lanthanoids and actinoids are f-block elements, form coloured ions. All actinoids
are radioactive.

53. Name the elements which belong to the d-block but are not transition metals.

(c) Hg
(d) all of the Above
