Hello Partha,

=
A transition metal has many unoccupied lone pairs, numbered from= lp*(1) to lp*(n).
The easy way to find which hybrid orbital corr= esponds to an NBO is to visualize it,=C2=A0
But, take care, first= of all try to draw the Lewis structure, by using the list of NBOs,
because NBO method frequently gives crazy Lewis structures for transitio= n metal=C2=A0
compounds.

Hope this help = you,
