What are inner transition elements? Decide which of the following atomic numbers are the atomic numbers of the inner transition elements : 29, 59, 74, 95, 102, 104.

Inner transition metals are the elements in which the last electron is entering in the f-orbital.

The elements in which the 4f and the 5f orbitals are progressively filled are called f-block elements.

From the above mentioned atomic numbers, the inner transition elements are the ones with atomic numbers 59, 95, and 102 because their last electron is entering in the f-orbital.
