Electrons of inner transition metals fill d-sublevels and electrons of transition metals fill f-sublevels?
That is false
What metals are shiny and have one or two electrons in their outer level?
Transition metals:)
Why do transition metals have magnetic properties?
Transition metals have magnetic properties because they have unpaired electrons in their d-orbitals. These unpaired electrons can align their spins in response to an external magnetic field, which leads to the generation of a magnetic field. This property is responsible for the magnetic behavior of transition metals.
What is coluured ion?
colour is the result of electron transitions.many complex ions of transition metals are coloured.Ti(H2O)63+ >> a complex with 1 d-electron - this has a red-purple colour.Cr(NH3)63+ >> a complex with 3 d-electrons - this has a purple colour.Ni(H2O)62+ >> a complex with 8 d-electrons - this has a green colour.Zn(NH3)42+ >> a complex with 10 d-electrons - this one has no colour and has no empty d-orbitals.
What orbital is represented by the transition metals in period 4?
The valence electrons are added to d orbitals in the case of transition metals (or d block elements).
What type of ions do transitional metals typically form?
cations or positive ions, as transition metals lose electrons to achieve a stable arrangement
What best describes the arrangement of electrons in a metallic bond?
A sea of electrons. This is a very good description of the bonding in group 1 group 2 metals. A more advanced view for transition metals calls the sea of electrons an "sp electron gas" alongside covalent bonding involving d electrons. This accounts for the melting point trends in transition metals
Electrons of inner transition metals fill d-sublevels and electrons of transition metals fill f-sublevels?
That is false
Why does the octet rule not always refer to a stable arrangement of 8 valence electrons?
The octet rule does not apply to transition and inner transition metals and to the first for or five elements in the periodic table.
What type of element is characterized by the presence of electrons in the d orbitals?
All transition metals have valence electrons in a d-orbital.
How do transition metals form compounds?
by losing electrons
What metals are shiny and have one or two electrons in their outer level?
Transition metals:)
How many valence electrons are in iridium?
2 valence electrons are in iridium because iridium is a transition metal. Most transitions metal would have 2 valence electrons because the group before the transition metals are the alkaline-earth metals which contains 2 valence electrons in that group making the transition metals have 2 valence electrons.
What is unique about valance electrons in transition metals?
The chemistry is about d electrons. They are all metals. The vast majority of their compounds are colored.
Which group has different numbers of valence electrons?
Transition metals.
How many valence electrons may metals have?
Different metals have different numbers of valence electrons. The alkali metals have 1. The alkaline-earth, transition, and inner transition metals have 2. Aluminum and those in its column have 3, tin and lead have 4.
How many valence electrons do Cooper have?
Copper (Cu) has 2 valence electrons. It is located in the middle group of elements, called Transition Metals, and all transition metals have 2 valence electrons...hope that helped! =D
