Iron, copper, zinc, gold, lead, and many other important metals are transition state elements. Almost all the metal objects that we have are therefore made from transition state metals. The major exception is aluminum, which is not a transition state element, and which is also used to make lots of things.

How do the properties of the transition element compare with those of the alkali metals and alkaline-earth metals?
Transition state metals include a wide variety of metals; they include iron, gold, and Mercury which all have strikingly different properties (hard, soft, and liquid, for example). Nonetheless, a comparison can be made between the transition state metals and the alkali and alkaline earth metals; transition state metals are not as chemically active (some transition state metals are actually inert, such as platinum).
What group of elements are not included in the alien periodic table?
Transition metals
How is boron different from the transition metals?
Boron is a metalloid, not a metal. Transition metals are metals.

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.
Which category do most elements belong to?
Hydrogen is the most common element in the universe followed by Helium (what stars are mostly made of). On the periodic table the "Transition Metals" have the most elements. The periodic table can be broken up into the following catagories from left to right: Alkali Metals, Alkaline Earth Metals, Transition Metals, Metaloids, Nonmetals, halogens, and noble gases. Lanthanides and Actinides are broken out at the bottom.
