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.

∙ 12y agoThey are known as outer transition elements b'coz they possess variable valecies and they also form coloured complex compounds..
Wiki User
∙ 12y agoBecause they all contain electrons inlower energy levels below the outer electron orbitals
Wiki User
∙ 11y agoBecause the valence electrons are added to the penultimate shell (the orbitals before d orbitals)

Which periods of the periodic table contain trans ition elements?
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".
Which are inner transitional metals?
The inner transition metals are a section that has been pulled out of the periodic table. These elements are called Lanthanides (La) & Actinides (Ac). Lanthanides: Ce, Pr, Nd, Pm, Sm, Eu, Gd, Tb, Dy, Ho, Er, Tm, Yb & Lu Actinides: Th, Pa, U, Np, Pu, Am, Cm, Bk, Cf, Es, Fm, Md, No, Pu, and Lr.
What are the atomic numbers from 58 to 71 called?
The elements with atomic numbers 58 to 71 are called Lanthanides or Lanthanoids. This literally means "Like Lanthanum". They are called this because they have similar characteristics to Lanthanum.
What are three main classifications of elements?
There are at least two possible answers to this question. The two most usual ones are probably: metals, nonmetals, and metalloids; or main group, transition elements, and inner transition elements.
What is one of the metals that can use the inner shell before using the outer shell to bond?
A transition metal is one of the metals that can use the inner shell before using the outer shell to bond. A alkaline earth metal is one of the elements of Group 2 of the periodic table.
Why are f-block elements called inner-transition 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
Why lanthenides are called inner transition elements?
Lanthanide: The first series of inner transitionelements which goes from cerium to lutetium.
Are Lanthanide and actinide elements are transition metals?
Yes, lanthanide and Actinides are transition elements and they are specifically called inner transition elements.
The number of inner transition elements is greater than the number of transition elements?
No
What is meant by inner transition elements?

Where can you find the inner transition elements of the periodic table?
The f-block elements (lanthanides and actinides, the two rows at the bottom of the periodic table) are known as inner transition elements
Are transition metals and inner transition metals are the group b elements?
yes they are. :)
The lanthanides and actinides are known as the?
Inner transition metals (inner transition elements)F-block
What are representative elemets?
The elements in the first two groups and in the last 6 groups. Basically all the elements except the inner transition and transition elements.
What is praseoydmuim?
A chemical element, one of the inner transition elements.
What is meant by outer transition elements?
Metals from the d-block (by opposition with the inner transition metals).
Which periods of the periodic table contain trans ition elements?
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".
