groups 3 to 7 (IUPAC -- IIIB-VIIB or IIIA-VIIA earlier systems) are called early transition metals because they form the first half of the transition series. This means, for example, that their maximum valency, expressed in their oxy-acids and salts (titanates, vanadates, chromates, and permanganates) matches their group number, that their complexes are slow to react, etc. This contrasts with the late transition metals (IUPAC groups 8 to 12) which tend to have a maximum valency of 2 or 3, and fast reacting complexes.
They often form colored compounds.They can have a variety of different oxidation states.At least one of their compounds has an incomplete d-electron subshell.They are often good catalysts.They are silvery-blue at room temperature (except copper and gold).They are solids at room temperature (except mercury).They form complex ions (aqua ions included).They are often paramagnetic.
Assuming we're dealing with a neutral atom, you're thinking of manganese (Mn). It has 25 protons and is a transition metal in period 4, group 7B on the periodic table.
In order, the leads are (from softest to hardest): 9B/8B/7B/6B/5B/4B/3B/2B/B/HB/F/H/2H/3H/4H/5H/6H/7H/8H/9H HB is the most commonly used lead for general purposes. The softer leads are used for art drawing, the harder for fine ledger work.
They are called groups. The classic form indicates the 18 groups as 1A, 2A, 3B, 4B, 5B, 6B, 7B, three columns as 8B, 1B, 2B, 3A, 4A, 5A, 6A, 7A, and 8A (or 0). The IUPAC renumbered the groups as simply 1 to 18 in 1990. (see related link)
The normal phase of rhenium are solids. These are also in group 7B.
11a+7b-(3b-2a)
add like terms: 3a -2a -5b + 6b +3b - 7b = a -3b
26 = 3b - 2 - 7b 28 = -4b b = -7
there is a sign missing -- if 4b +15 = 7b then 3b = 15 and b thus = 5 if 4b - 15 = 7b then 3b = -15 and b = -5
9a + 7b *remember to look and understand the letters!*
3b - 7b - 2 = 26 then , -2 - 4b = 26 then , 4b = 26 then you do , -4 / 26 which equals 7
If you mean: 6(-3b-1)+2(7b-1) then it is -4b-8 simplified
3b -2 =7 b+4
1a+3b 2a+4b=3a +7b
b= 4.5
(-3b - 4)(-2b + 5)
6a+7b
