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 early vs. late transition metals differ in their oxidation states (each metal has different possible oxidation states). Electrons have a stronger attraction to the protons in the late transition metals, so the later transition metals form bonds that are harder to break.

One key physical difference between transition metals and poor metals is that transition metals have high melting and boiling points compared to poor metals. Transition metals also tend to be more malleable and ductile, while poor metals are typically softer and have lower melting points.
Iron (Fe) and Copper (Cu) are two common transition metals.
These elements are known as transition metals or d-block elements
No, electrons of inner transition metals fill f-sublevels, while electrons of transition metals fill d-sublevels. Inner transition metals have their f-sublevels as part of their electron configuration, whereas transition metals have d-sublevels as part of their electron configuration.
it was more improved than the early transition metals....and in late transition the perodic table was complety done

Boron is a metalloid, not a metal. Transition metals are metals.
I believe that the answer you are looking for is Transition Metals.

Transition Metals! ^-^ http://chemistry.about.com/library/blperiodictable.htm
D-block elements are also known as the transition metals.
Now actinoids and lanthanoids are considered as transition metals.
yes they are metals
No. Most of the metals listed are not transition metals and most transition metals are not in the list.
