What are some characteristics of transitional metals?
Their last two shells are incompletely filled. They are metallic in nature, i.e., they donate their valence electrons in a reaction.
Why does paint mostly contain transition metals?
because transition metals have partially filled d-orbitals which react with ligands inside paint which produces more energy within the trans. d-orbital. This process makes the different colours we see today in paints, so we use different trans metals an ligand complex to produce different colours. Look on chemguide.com for more info.
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.
Are transition metals and inner transition metals are the group b elements?
yes they are. :)
Which subshells of transition metals are partially filled?
D sublevel
Does zinc have a partially filled 'd' sublevel?
no. it's d sublevel is full and that is the reason why it is not coloured like other transition metals that have a partially filled d-sublevel
What are examples of transition element?
Iron, Cobalt, Copper, Nickel and Titanium are all transition elements (metals.) Transition metals are defined as ones which form at least one species which has partially filled d orbitals.
Which of the d-block elements are not regarded as transition metals?
Scandium and zinc (and probably those below them in their groups, but I'm uncertain of that) are not considered to be transition metals, as they do not form ions with partially filled d-subshells.
Why d block element are called transition element?
d block elements, transition metals, transition elements are synonyms.The definition of d block after the IUPAC recommendation is "an element whose atom has a partially filled d sub-shell, or which can give rise to cations with an incomplete dsub-shell".
What metals are transition?
If you have the Periodic Table on hand, group 2- 12 are considered transition metals ope this helped
How do transuranium elements differ from other inner transition metals?
Transition metals are d-block elements. Their general electronic configuration is (n-1)d1-9 ns0-2. The last electron enters the d-subshell.Inner Transition metals are f-block elements. Their general electronic configuration is (n-2)f1-13(n-1)d1-9 ns0-2. The last electron enters the f-subshell.
What are the Group B elements?
Group B elements are the elements between group 2A and group 3A in the periodic table. Note that it doesn't necessarily mean that Group B elements are transition metals because the definition of a transition metal is "a metal which forms one or more stable ions with an INCOMPLETELY-FILLED d-subshell". Because of this definition, Scandium, Zinc, and a few others are not classified as transition metals although they are Group B elements.

Which of the 2 outermost orbitals must be filled to satisfy the octet rule?
S and P orbitals are the 2 outermost orbitals that must be filled to satisfy the octet rule. Transition metals has the d orbitals that are either partially filled or unfilled.
What is the name of groups 3-12 name on the periodic table?
The groups from 3 to 12 are called transitional metals because the last two shells of the elements included in these groups are incompletely filled. They are also included in d-block.Groups 3 through 12 are called the transition metals or the d-block.
