Transition metals have a high melting point due to the contribution of the 4s and 3d electrons to form the mobile charge cloud leading to a very strong metallic bonding which requires more energy to break thus high melting point. Due to the very close packing structure of transition metals where each atom has 12 nearest neigbours; small atomic size and hence high mass per unit volume and a high density.
Transition metals are hard because electrons can come from more shells then their outer shell. this means they have far more electrons available for bonding and so very strong metallic bonds are formed.
A substance is a solid if the atoms are held together, basically strong metallic bonds mean atoms are packed & held tightly to one another. i keep wanting to type metallica insted of metallc :P
Because the atoms are tightly packed and they just kind of vibrate to move.
Liquids are more spread out, gases are really more spread out.
Transition metals are hard. Iron, copper, silver and gold are important transition metals. Most of them can also conduct electricity.
They form colored solutions
Nickel is a metallic solid in the group of transition metals.

what are some examples of hard metals
The family name for hafnium is the transition metals.
Early transition metals are does starting at the beginning of the transition metals (i.e. Sc) and going through about d5 which would be Mn. These metals are less electron rich as compared to the so-called "late" transition metals and the chemistry of each is somewhat different and definitely unique. Hardness and softness of the each of these groups changes (see Hard Soft Acid Base Theory) as does the stable oxidation states and coordination numbers.

the solid family/rock/metal it belongs to the transition metal familyit is an answerGold is a member of the transition metals and the noble metals
it belongs to the transition metals so, I would say it is a SOLID.
what are some examples of hard metals
Transition elements are ALL solid metals except for mercury (80Hg) which is a liquid.
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).
They are silvery and hard like all transition metals
Mercury and gallium are examples of metallic elements that are in liquid form at room temperature. They possess metallic properties such as being good conductors of electricity and having lustrous appearances.
Rhenium is a transition metal. Like all of the transition metals except for mercury, rhenium is a solid at room temperature. It melts into a liquid at 3459 kelvin.
transition metals
Elements beyond uranium (atomic number 92) are not typically included in the alien periodic table as they are synthetic and not naturally occurring on Earth. This includes elements such as neptunium, plutonium, and beyond.
