Read carefully the passage and select the correct answer out of given four options:Transition elements show variable oxidation states. This is due to their valence electrons which are found in two different orbitals i.e., ns and (n-1)d. Up to (+II) oxidation state ns electrons are involved, but in higher oxidation states, electrons of (n-1)d sun-shells are involved.The transition metal which shows the highest oxidation state is(a) Mn(b) Pt(c) Fe(d) Ni
