What family is Tungsten in?

Tungsten is within the family of Transition metals.


What metals or metal compounds will not react with copper sulfate?

any metals that are below copper in the reactivity series


Why are transition metal oxides added to pottery glazes?

Most transition metals form coloured compounds so they can be used in pottery glazes of various colours. E.g weathered copper which is green hope it helps


Can gold copper and silver be pulled into wires?

Yes, and so can all other metals (however very hard metals like tungsten wear out the dies very rapidly).


What family does copper belong to on the periodic table of elements?

PHYSICAL PROPERTIES:Copper is a reddish chemical element. It is an extremely ductile metal and is second only to silver as a conductor of electricity and heat. It has a pleasing color and luster, it takes a high polish, and it forms alloys readily with almost all metals. Copper found in the free metallic state in nature is called "native copper." It is found throughout the world as a primary mineral in basaltic lava's. The greatest known deposit of copper is in porphyries formed by volcanic activity in the Chile's Andean Mountains.Copper is usually found in nature in association with sulfur. Pure copper metal is generally produced from a multistage process, beginning with the mining and concentrating of low-grade ores containing copper sulfide minerals, and followed by smelting and electrolytic refining to produce a pure copper cathode. An increasing share of copper is produced from acid leaching of oxidized ores. Nearly as much copper is recovered from recycled material as is derived from newly mined ore.Snowflakeia: It belongs to transition metals

Are transition metals highly coloured?

The transition metals themselves are not particularly highly coloured. Gold is golden, copper is copper but the majority are grey or silver with a greater or lesser degree of shine.The compounds formed by transition metals (as opposed to those of group one and two metals) are highly coloured and as with all metals they all burn with distinctive flame colours.


What groups of elements have various charges?

Transition metals such as Iron, Copper, etc..

Which have the high melting pointmetal or metaloids or transitionmetal?

Usually the transition metals. (Tungsten has the highest melting point of all the metals.)


What transition element forms many compounds in the plus 1 oxidation state?

A number of transition metals form compounds in the +1 state. Examples being Copper, Gold, Silver and Mercury. Although none of them is too much chemically reactive, yet Copper is tad bit more reactive than the latter two. Copper would make the most compounds in +1 oxidation state.


Compounds containing transition metals?
