look...
transition elements are those elements lying in the d-block.
they are all metals which form coloured compounds.
they have variable valency.
the are kknown as transition elements due to the fact that they provide a transition in the table horixontally from the highly reducing agents to oxidising agents.
they can be both good reducing or oxidising agents too due to their variable valencies(oxidation numbers also)
