Zn,Cad,Mg are not consider as transsition element why
 

Dear Student,

It should be Hg instead of Mg.
Zinc (Zn), Cadmium(Cd) and Mercury(Hg) have general electronic configuration (n-1)d10 ns2. They have completely filled electronic configuration in the ground state as well as in their common oxidation states. Transition elements are defined as the elements which have incomplete d-subshell.Therefore, Zn, Cd and Hg are not regarded as transition elements.
