Transition Metals! ^-^ http://chemistry.about.com/library/blperiodictable.htm
Group 1 = Alkali Metals Group 2 = Alkali Earth metals Between Group 2 And Group 3 are the Transition metals. Groups 3,4,5,& 6 do not have a name, but are headed by Boron, Carbon, Nitrogen and Oxygen respectively. Group 7 = Halogens Group 8 = Noble/Inert gases. Lower down the Periodic table between Group 2 and the Transition metals are two Periods(Rows) ; the first are the Lanthanides and the second(lower again) are the Actinides(Radio Active elements).
inner transition elements are those who have their last 3 shells incompletely filled. The f block elements have their last 3 shells incompletly filled . That is why they are also called as inner transition elements. what different between inner transition and outer transition elements
The 38 elements in group 3 through 12 of the periodic table are called Transition Metals.It consist of elements from atomic number 21 to 112. These are also called d block elements.
Transition metals
All the transition elements are metals. In the usual wide form periodic table, the transition elements are in columns 3 - 12 and in two rows at the bottom of the main table. Those in the rows at the bottom are also called "inner transition elements".

Elemets that are transition elements are situated in the middle of the Periodic Table. They are periods 4-7, columns 3-12 (not groups at the transition metals are between groups 2 and 3 in an area of their own). They transition metal with the lowest atomic mass is Scandium (Sc) in the top left and the highest atomic mass is the artificial element Copernicium (Cn). The transition metals also contain the Lanthanides and Actinides.
The elements in the groups 3-12 are transition elements
elements in groups 3-12 are transition metals
Elements located in groups 4 - 12 in the modern periodic table are considered as transition elements. Transition elements should not be confused with the d-block elements which are from groups 3 - 12.
generally groups 3-12 are called the transition metals.
Group1,2 13- 18 are not transition elements . Transition elements are present in group 3-12.
the transition elements are those elements having a partially filled d or f subshell in any common oxidation state.
