Z=40Electronic configuration withou afbau principle1s^2 2s^2 2p^6 3s^2 3p^6 3d^2so the last electron enters in d orbital it should be dblock element

Electronic configuration of Ca is 1s22s22p63s23p64s2
Filling of 3d orbital starts after the filling of 4s orbitals. If the aufbau principle had not been followed, the filling of 3d orbital would have been prior to filling of 4s orbital and the electronic configuration of Ca would have been 1s22s22p63s23p64s2  and it belongs to d block.
