A) H B) As
C) Fe D) Sr
 
Answer & Explanation Answer: C) Fe

Explanation:

In chemistry, the term transition metal has three possible meanings: The IUPAC definition defines a transition metal as "an element whose atom has a partially filled d sub-shell, or which can give rise to cations with an incomplete d sub-shell".

Any of the set of metallic elements occupying a central block (Groups IVB–VIII, IB, and IIB, or 4–12) in the periodic table, e.g. iron, manganese, chromium, and copper. Chemically they show variable valency and a strong tendency to form coordination compounds, and many of their compounds are coloured.

 

Here in the given options, only iron (Fe) is a transition metal since Strontium is an alkaline earth, arsenic is a metalloid, hydrogen is (normally) a diatomic gas.
