Transition metals typically form compounds by losing electrons to create positively charged ions, which then bond with other atoms to form compounds. These metals often exhibit variable oxidation states, allowing them to form a variety of compounds with different elements. Commonly, transition metals form coordination compounds by donating electrons to ligands to create complex structures.

Yes, transition metals are known to be stable. This is because, both, their ions and compounds are also considered to be stable.
The transition metals tend to form colored compounds.
Colored ions are normally associated with the transition metals, which aren't actually a "group" in the usual chemical sense of the word. Also, they don't have to be in aqueous solutions.
The transition metals often produce colorful compounds.
Transition metals, such as those in groups 3-12 of the periodic table, are known for forming colorful compounds due to their ability to absorb and reflect different wavelengths of light. The presence of unpaired d electrons in transition metals allows them to participate in various electron transitions, resulting in vibrant colors in their compounds.
Romann numerals are used: (I), (II)...
analysis of the transition metals and highly conjugated organic compounds
Transition metals generally have less reactivity than alkali or alkaline earth metals. This is because transition metals have more filled electron shells which provide greater stability, making it harder for them to lose or gain electrons compared to alkali or alkaline earth metals. Transition metals typically form compounds by sharing electrons or by forming complex ions, unlike alkali or alkaline earth metals that readily form simple ionic compounds by losing electrons.
Ionic compounds: NaCl, KOH, CuSO4, etc. Any compound containing a metal and a non-metal. In ionic compounds, metals have positive ions (they lose electrons to the non metal) and non-metals have negative ions (as they gain electrons from the metal) Covalent compounds: CH4, BF3, NH3, all hydrocarbons/ all compounds containing only non-metals.
