The group 2 elements are called the alkaline earth metals. The transition metals are in groups 3 - 12. They are transition metals because they have electrons in their d sublevels.

Elements of Group 1 Are Called what?
Elements in group 1 are called Alkali Metals, after that group 2 elements are called Alkali Earth Metals, group 3-12 elements are called Transition Elements.
What are the elements in group 2 through 12 called in the periodic table?
Groups 3 through 12 are transition elements. Group 2 is alkaline earth metals.
What are the elements on the periodic table between group 2 and 3 called?
These elements are called the Alkaline Earth Metals. This group consists of Beryllium, Magnesium, Calcium, Strontium, Barium, and Radium.Hopefully this helps:)
What are the groups below the main group elements on the periodic table called?
3d-block elements or tranformation elements and 4f-block elements or lanthanides and actinides
How do transition metals properties compare with those of elements farther to the left?
The chemical reactivity of transition metals is generally less than that of metals to its left (group 1 and group 2 metals). However, transition metals can exhibit various oxidation states and hence form more number of compounds than group 1 and group 2 elements.
Elements of Group 1 Are Called what?
Elements in group 1 are called Alkali Metals, after that group 2 elements are called Alkali Earth Metals, group 3-12 elements are called Transition Elements.
What are Elements in the middle block of the periodic table are called?
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).
What are the elements in group 2 through 12 called in the periodic table?
Groups 3 through 12 are transition elements. Group 2 is alkaline earth metals.
What is the group name of the majority elements?
Transition metal group,that is between group 2 and 3
What special name is given to the groups between group 2 and group 13 on the periodic table?
The elements between group 2 and 13 are called Transition elements. They are placed in center of periodic table.
Which group of elements can have varying numbers of valence electrons metals noble gases non-metals?
Transition metals
What is in the main group of elements?
The main group of elements includes all the elements in columns 1, 2, and 13 through 18 of a wide form periodic table. All the other elements are "transition elements", and those in the two horizontal rows at the bottom of a wide form periodic table are also called "inner transition" elements.
What are the elements on the periodic table between group 2 and 3 called?
These elements are called the Alkaline Earth Metals. This group consists of Beryllium, Magnesium, Calcium, Strontium, Barium, and Radium.Hopefully this helps:)
What are alkaline metal an alkaline earth metal and a transition metal?
Beryllium magnesium strantium calcium barium radium
What are the groups below the main group elements on the periodic table called?
3d-block elements or tranformation elements and 4f-block elements or lanthanides and actinides
How many valence electrons do Cooper have?
Copper (Cu) has 2 valence electrons. It is located in the middle group of elements, called Transition Metals, and all transition metals have 2 valence electrons...hope that helped! =D
What are representatives elements?
elements from group1-2 ,13-18 are called representative elements. Those from 3-12 form the transition elements!
