Elemets that are transition elements are situated in the middle of the Periodic Table. They are periods 4-7, columns 3-12 (not groups at the transition metals are between groups 2 and 3 in an area of their own). They transition metal with the lowest atomic mass is Scandium (Sc) in the top left and the highest Atomic Mass is the artificial element Copernicium (Cn). The transition metals also contain the Lanthanides and Actinides.
Steel is not an element at all ! It is an alloy (mixture) of mainly transitional metals. (Fe, Ni, Co are transitionals) Lead, Pb, is not a transition metal but post-transional (group 14) (Transition elements are in group 3 to 12)
There are two ions formed by copper. In copper(I) ion, the 3d orbital is fully filled, and show no transitional behaviour. Whereas copper(II) ion shows transitional characteristics as it has unfilled 3d orbitals. Therefore, copper is a transitional element.
Nitrogen is a representative element. Transitional elements are those found in the d-block of the periodic table, while representative elements are the s and p-block elements. Nitrogen is located in group 15 (formerly known as group V) of the periodic table.
The three transitional layers in the atmosphere are the tropopause, which separates the troposphere and the stratosphere; the stratopause, which separates the stratosphere and the mesosphere; and the mesopause, which separates the mesosphere and the thermosphere.
No, silicon is not a halogen. It is a type of transitional metal. There are only five halogens: bromine, astatine, chlorine, iodine, and fluorine.
It is with the Transitional Metal!
Transitional elements/metals.
If I am right, they are known as 'transitional metals'.
transitional metals, to be specific the elements are actually on the table if you look at it closely:)

The representative elements, or main group elements, consist of all elements in the table's "s" and "p" blocks, excluding the noble gases. They are grouped into alkali metals, alkaline earth metals and post-transitional metals.

A transitional boundary.
Transition metals make colorful cations. They make compounds with different oxidation numbers.
