see...write the configuration of all the elements
Cr 1s² 2s² 2p⁶ 3s² 3p⁶ 4s¹ 3d⁵
Mo ns¹ (n-1)d⁵
Cu 1s² 2s² 2p⁶ 3s² 3p⁶ 4s¹ 3d¹⁰
Zn 1s² 2s² 2p⁶ 3s² 3p⁶ 4s² 3d¹⁰

So in case of Cr and Mo both valence and penultimate shells are partially filled..whereas in case of Cu valence shell is partially filled..in case Zn both shells are fully filled
