Vedclass · Answer

(C) Transition elements are characterized by the presence of partially filled $d$-orbitals. While other elements can form paramagnetic or coloured compounds,the ability to form a large number of complex compounds (coordination compounds) is a unique and defining characteristic of transition elements due to their small size,high nuclear charge,and availability of vacant $d$-orbitals for bonding. Therefore,the correct option is $C$.
