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.
These elements are called the Alkaline Earth Metals. This group consists of Beryllium, Magnesium, Calcium, Strontium, Barium, and Radium.Hopefully this helps:)
Elements in group 2 through 12 of the periodic table are known as transition metals. They are characterized by their ability to form multiple oxidation states and their tendency to exhibit colorful compounds.
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.
They are called the transition metals. These elements are located in groups 3-12 on the periodic table and have properties such as high melting points, conductivity, and the ability to form colored compounds.
Groups 1, 2, and 13 are not considered transition elements as they do not exhibit the typical properties of transition metals such as multiple oxidation states and colored compounds.
These elements are called the Alkaline Earth Metals. This group consists of Beryllium, Magnesium, Calcium, Strontium, Barium, and Radium.Hopefully this helps:)
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).
So-called NON-transition metals is not a defined group of elements, other than "All other elements that are NOT transition elements".
Elements in group 2 through 12 of the periodic table are known as transition metals. They are characterized by their ability to form multiple oxidation states and their tendency to exhibit colorful compounds.
The elements between group 2 and 13 are called Transition elements. They are placed in center of periodic table.
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.
Transition metal group,that is between group 2 and 3
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.
The opposite of transition metals are main group elements, which include elements from groups 1, 2, and 13-18 on the periodic table. Main group elements typically have predictable properties and are less likely to exhibit variable oxidation states compared to transition metals.
Beryllium magnesium strantium calcium barium radium
elements from group1-2 ,13-18 are called representative elements. Those from 3-12 form the transition elements!
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
