Why are elements like silicon not usually used to make wires or pans?
Elements like silicon are not typically used to make wires or pans because they have poor conductivity compared to metals like copper or aluminum. Silicon is a semiconductor and its electrical conductivity is much lower than that of metals, making it unsuitable for conducting electricity efficiently. Additionally, silicon is brittle and not as malleable as metals, making it less practical for forming into the shapes needed for wires or pans.
What name is sometimes used to refer to the entire set of d block elements?
The transition metals
What is the group 3b-12b elements know as?
The group 3b-12b elements are known as the transition metals. They are characterized by their ability to form colorful compounds, exhibit variable oxidation states, and have high melting and boiling points. Many transition metals are used in industrial applications and play important roles in biological systems.
What is the primary use of transition metals?
There are 38 transition elements. They are the elements that are members of groups 3 through 12 of the periodic table. Iron, copper, gold and silver are just some of the elements asked about here. The industrial applicatons of these metals would fill a book. Several books, in fact.
What are the elements located in the middle of the periodic table called?
The elements located in the middle of the periodic table are called transition metals. They are known for their metallic properties, ability to form colored compounds, and variable oxidation states. Transition metals are often used in industrial applications due to their unique characteristics.
Name 2 elements that many of your pots and pans are made of?
The two elements most often used in pots and pans are iron and aluminum.

What name is sometimes used to refer to entire set of d-block elements?
D-block elements are also known as the transition metals.

What met tel is used to make pans?
non stick
What is used to name metal elements with variable numbers of valence electrons?
The transition metals.
How many d-block elements are there?
These are the transition elements found between groups 2A and 3A of the Periodic Table. In general chemistry we speak of the first transition series (i.e. Scandium to Zinc - though Zinc is not always considered to be a true transition element); the second transition series (Ytterium to Cadmium) and the third transition series (Lanthanum to Mercury). Transition metals and their compounds find frequent use as industrial catalysts. Many of their compounds are coloured and they also have multiple valencies (that's why Zinc is not always considered a transition metal).
What things are made of transition metals?
Iron, copper, zinc, gold, lead, and many other important metals are transition state elements. Almost all the metal objects that we have are therefore made from transition state metals. The major exception is aluminum, which is not a transition state element, and which is also used to make lots of things.
Why is metal used to make pans?
Because metal is a good conductor of heat.
Why metal used to make pans?
Because metal is a good conductor of heat.
What characteristics do atoms of mangnaese-55 iron-56 and nickel-58 have in common?
They are all transition elements, so all are fairly unreactive, form coloured compounds and are hard and strong elements, they can be used to make alloys.
Roman numeral should be used when naming which compounds?
Compounds which contain transition elements. cu2so4
