The p-block elements are the elements in groups 13-18 of the periodic table. Option A is einsteinium (Es), a member of the actinide series (f-block), so it is not a p-block element. Option B is iron (Fe), a d-block element, so it is not a p-block element. Option C is sodium (Na), which is in group 1 (s-block), so it is not a p-block element. Option D is tellurium (Te), which is in group 16 (p-block), making it the only p-block element among the options.
