niether it is a transition metal
There transition, which is the same thing as magnetic
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).
The alkaline earth metals are Group IIA of the periodic table. Alkaline earth metals are metals with a valency of '+2'. They are:Beryllium (Be)Magnesium (Mg)Calcium (Ca)Strontium (Sr)Barium (Ba)Radium (Ra)
Because of lots of iron at top of earth, metal dial of compass is attracted to it.
It is widely scientifically believed that the inner core (deepest part of Earth) is made of solid iron. However the inner core is surrounded by an outer core of iron and nickel that is believed to be molten material.
No, iron is not an alkaline earth metal. Iron is classified as a transition metal due to its position in the periodic table and its chemical properties. Alkaline earth metals include elements like magnesium and calcium.
Both iron and calcium are metals. Iron is a transition metal, calcium is an alkaline earth metal.
No, Fe is not an alkali metal. It is the chemical symbol for iron, which is a transition metal. Alkali metals are found in Group 1 of the periodic table, such as lithium, sodium, and potassium.
I'm assuming you're thinking of metals like Stainless Steel, Iron, Copper Wiring. These are compound metals made up of several elements. They aren't Transition, Alkali, or Alkaline Earth, they're just metals. Alkali, Alkaline-Earth, and Transition metals are elements, like Sodium or Cobalt. Alkali metal: These are members of group 1 on the periodic table. They are bases (as opposed to acids) and are extremely reactive. They include Sodium and Potassium Alkaline-Earth metals: These are members of group 2 on the periodic table. The are related to the Alkali metals, but are less reactive. They are also alkalines and found in the earth, as the name suggests. Transition metals: These are the most common metals. They are groups 3-I believe 15. They tend to lack acidic or basic properties. They are also the best at carrying electric currents. Hope I helped!

No. Alkali metals such as sodium and potassium are not usually considered contributors to water hardness. The alkaline earth and transition metals (such as calcium and iron) are. Potassium itself is a very soft metal that can be easily cut with a steel knife.
No, iron is not an alkali metal. Alkali metals are a group of elements that include lithium, sodium, potassium, and others, all of which are found in Group 1 of the periodic table. Iron is a transition metal and is located in a different group of the periodic table.
Yes, most transition metals (like iron) have greater densities than alkali or alkaline earth metals.
No, calcium is not a ferrous metal. Ferrous metals are those that contain iron, such as steel. Calcium is a chemical element that is an alkaline earth metal, not a ferrous metal.
Not necessarily. Non-ferrous simply means not iron. The term may be used to refer to metals that are unlike iron, but there are very many of them which are not alkali either.
Most elements are metals, including alkali metals, alkaline earth metals, transition metals, basic metals, and rare earth elements. There are three (3) Metallic elements that start with the letter "I". These metals are are Iron (Fe) and Iridium (Ir), transition metals, and; Indium (In), classified as an "other metal".
No, iron is harder than potassium. Iron is a metal with a higher Mohs hardness rating than potassium, which is a soft alkali metal.
