Question

The catalytic activity of transition metals and their compounds is ascribed mainly to:

  1. Conductivity
  2. Variable oxidation states
  3. High melting point
  4. Lesser reactivity

hintHint:

Variable oxidation states

The correct answer is: Variable oxidation states


    The activity of Transition metals and their compounds are ascribed mainly to their ability to adapt oxidation states. They can change their oxidation state and can become more effective.
