Silver atom has completely filled d-orbitals (4d10) in its ground state. How can you say that it is a transition element?

Answer:

Silver (Ag) belongs to group 11 of d-block and its ground state electronic configuration is 4d10 5s1. It shows an oxidation state of +2 in its compounds like AgO and AgF2 in which its electronic configuration is d9 so it is a transition element.
