MCQ
Differentiating electron in inner transition elements enters the $.......$ orbital.
  • A
    $s$
  • B
    $p$
  • C
    $d$
  • $f$

Answer

Correct option: D.
$f$
In inner transition elements, the differentiating electron enters into $f$ orbitals. So these elements are called $f-$block elements.
The $'f\ ’ –$ block elements are also known by the name of inner transition elements. In these elements, the last electron usually enters the penultimate i.e. $(n – 2) f$ of the orbital.
