Scandium is the smallest d-block element which in the past also made it the smallest transition metal.
However, using the accepted modern definition of a transition metal:
'a transition metal is one which forms one or more stable ions which have incompletely filled d orbitals'
scandium would not count as a transition metal, as it always forms 3+ ions with no d-electrons.
Using this definition, the smallest transition metal would therefore be titanium.
This element is scandium.

The chemical element Rhodium belongs to the Transition Metal family.
Copper is a transition metal with the Atomic number of 29. Transition metals are found in the d block elements in the wide block of elements that separate groups 2 and group 13. Hope this helps
The first transition metal is scandium, Sc, with atomic number 21.
Titanium belongs to group 4 on the table.It is a transition metal with atomic number 22.It is highly resistant to corrosion.
It is a transition metal; it does not have a numerical group.
Aluminum is a metal in Group 13, and with atomic number 13 on the periodic table. Iron is a transition metal in Group 8, and with atomic number 26 on the periodic table.
It is a transition metal in group 4, period 5. It has atomic number 40.
The chemical element Rhodium belongs to the Transition Metal family.
Rhodium is a transition metal, atomic # 45, Period 5, Group 9 on the periodic table, has an atomic mass of 102.9, and is solid at room temperature.
Copper is a transition metal with the Atomic number of 29. Transition metals are found in the d block elements in the wide block of elements that separate groups 2 and group 13. Hope this helps
Just zinc. Chemical symbol Zn, atomic number 30 and the first of the elements in group 12 of the periodic table.
Nickel is part of the transition metal family. its the transition metal family this is a message from montario Edwards :)
Zirconium: transition metal, group 4, period 5, block d, atomic number 40.
The first transition metal is scandium, Sc, with atomic number 21.
In a given period, the element with lowest atomic mass will belong to group 1. It should also be noted that lithium is the metal with the smallest atomic mass.
zinc, cadmium, mercury, and copernicium. This is the group 12 family of elements, and is the final transition metal group
Iron is found in period 4 group 8.It is a transition metal with atomic number of 26.
