Question
Any transition series contains only ten elements, why?

Answer

It is because there are only 10 members since in the period left to right atomic number increases and hence after a certain number when the d subshell is fully filled the electron has to go in the s and p-subshell and hence it (d-block) ends up with only 10 elements.
