Are transition metals better conductors than alkali metals?
transition metals
How is boron different from the transition metals?
Boron is a metalloid, not a metal. Transition metals are metals.
Metals that are less reactive than alkali metals and alkaline-earth metals are called?
I believe that the answer you are looking for is Transition Metals.
Why do transition metals have multiple oxidation states?
Transition metals have multiple oxidation states due to the number of electrons that an atom loses, gains, or uses when joining another atom in compounds. It also determined the ability of an atom to reduce.
What are the familiar transition metals and their uses?
They are on the periodic table stop being lazy and search for it, and after you search for it go outside and see the sun for once in your life
What are elements in groups 3-12 known as?
Transition Metals! ^-^ http://chemistry.about.com/library/blperiodictable.htm
Is their a relation between uses of the transition metal as a catalyst and the properties of transition metals?
One property of transition metals is that all elements and compounds in transition metals act as a catalyst ( speeds up chemical reactions. )xcool77
What name is sometimes used to refer to entire set of d-block elements?
D-block elements are also known as the transition metals.
Are lanththanide and actinide transition metals?
Now actinoids and lanthanoids are considered as transition metals.
Why are iron and certain other transition metals are used in construction instead of the alkali metals?
Iron and other transition metals are used in construction due to their strength, durability, and versatility compared to alkali metals. Alkali metals are too reactive and unstable in air and water, making them unsuitable for most construction applications. Transition metals can form strong alloys and have desirable properties that make them more practical for structural uses.
Are transition elements metals?
yes they are metals
Electrons of inner transition metals fill d-sublevels and electrons of transition metals fill f-sublevels?
Actually, it's the other way around. Electrons of transition metals fill d-sublevels, while electrons of inner transition metals fill f-sublevels. Inner transition metals are located in the f-block of the periodic table, while transition metals are located in the d-block.
