The location of transition elements is in between?
- A
S and p block
- B
D and f block
- C
S and f block
- D
None of these options are correct
The location of transition elements is in between the s and p block of the periodic table. Transition elements are found in the d-block. The d-block consists of elements that have partially filled d orbitals in their electron configuration. These elements are placed between the s-block (groups 1 and 2) and the p-block (groups 13 to 18) on the periodic table.

Transition elements are located in the d-block of the periodic table. The d-block elements have partially filled d orbitals in their electron configurations. The f-block consists of the lanthanides and actinides, which are placed below the rest of the elements in separate rows.
There is no specific "s and f block" in the periodic table. As mentioned earlier, the s-block and f-block are separate sections of the periodic table, containing different groups of elements. The transition elements, found in the d-block, are between the s and p blocks.
This option is incorrect. Option A is correct.
