Carbon is group 14 element and comes under p-block elements.

It is because its last electrons fall into the p-subshell.

Its electronic configuration is 1s22s22p2 .

Transition elements are the elements of d-block.They are named so because their position in the Periodic Table lies between the s-block and p-block elements.

They have their last electrons filled in the d-orbital.
