Transition metals. in fact, it is the Only radioactive transition metal!
The family name of rhenium is the "Transition Metals." Rhenium is part of Group 7 and Period 6 of the periodic table.
The element hafnium belongs to the transition metals, and is a member of Group 4 of the modern periodic table. A link can be found below.
iridium is a family member of the platinum group it is also known as a transition metal.
transition metals
These elements are called "main group elements".
Cobalt (element number 27) is classified as a "Transition Metal" and is located in Group 9 of the Periodic Table. Transition Metals are ductile, malleable, and able to conduct electricity and heat.
Group 1 = Alkali Metals Group 2 = Alkali Earth metals Between Group 2 And Group 3 are the Transition metals. Groups 3,4,5,& 6 do not have a name, but are headed by Boron, Carbon, Nitrogen and Oxygen respectively. Group 7 = Halogens Group 8 = Noble/Inert gases. Lower down the Periodic table between Group 2 and the Transition metals are two Periods(Rows) ; the first are the Lanthanides and the second(lower again) are the Actinides(Radio Active elements).
Zinc belongs to the family of elements known as the transition metals. Transition metals are located in the d-block of the periodic table and are characterized by their ability to form multiple oxidation states and colorful compounds. Zinc specifically is a member of Group 12, which also includes cadmium and mercury.
