Detailed Solution

An element with pseudo noble gas configuration has 18 electrons in the outermost shell instead of 8.
Therefore, element having filled d orbital in ground state will have this pseudo inert gas configuration.
For element with atomic number 46, the configuration is [Kr]4d10, standing for a filled d orbital.
Hence, option (A) 46, is the correct answer.
