Explain why the transition metals are sometimes referred to as the d-blok elements?
Wiki User
∙ 12y ago
the transition metals constitute groups 3 through 12 and are sometimes called d-block elements because of their position in the Periodic Table; while they all have the same valance electron orbital 'd'.

Can all elements on the periodic table be classified as metals or nonmetals explain?
The elements are classified as metals and non metals. Apart from this, there are elements that are metalloids, transition elements, inert in nature.
Can all elements on the periodic table be classified as metals or non metals Explain?
Apart from metals and non-metals, metalloids are also present. Transition elements are also present in periodic table.
Explain the effect of austenite and ferrite stabilizers?
In steels, alloying elements such as silicon, chromium, molybdenum, aluminum, titanium, niobium, etc., stabilize the (body-centered cubic) ferrite phase. These elements are referred to as ferrite stabilizers. Alloying elements such as carbon, nitrogen, manganese, nickel, copper, etc., stabilize the (face-centered cubic) austenite phase. These elements are referred to as austenite stabilizers.

Explain the difference between a group and a period in the periodic table?
Elements within the same row have the same electron configurations in their valence shell. Elements in the same period show trends in atomic radius, ionization energy, electron affinity, and electronegativity.
Explain the distinction between autonomous and accommodating items in the balance of payments?
Autonomous items in the balance of payments capture transactions that private agents undertake when they maximize profits or welfare. These items are sometimes referred to as above the line items. Accommodating items reflect government actions aimed at altering the size and the composition of the balance of payments, and they are sometimes referred to as below the line items.
