There is no sensible answer to the question because scandium IS a transition element.
Scandium is an metallic element. Since it is an element is not made from anything else. Scandium can be found on earth, the sun and the stars. Pure scandium is obtained by electrolysis of molten scandium, lithium and potassium chlorides in a graphite crucible, with a wolfram wire with molten zinc as an electrode. As all other chemical elements scandium atom has a nucleus (containing protons and neutrons) and a cloud of electrons.
The element yttrium is found in the transition metal location on the periodic table and is very similar to the lanthanides so it has been grouped with them as a rare earth element.
The element with a mass number of 45 is scandium. It has an atomic number of 21, which means it has 21 protons in its nucleus.
Yttrium is an element on the periodic table with the symbol Y and atomic number 39. It is a metal that is commonly used in various industrial applications. It is not a compound as it is a pure substance composed of only yttrium atoms.
The atomic number of scandium (Sc) is 21. The atomic weight of Sc is 44.95591 grams per mole.
Scandium
transition metal
Lithium is the lightest transition metal.
Scandium is a transition metal that is soft and silvery-white in appearance. It is a malleable and ductile element. Scandium has 21 protons and 24 neutrons.
The first transition metal is scandium, Sc, with atomic number 21.
No, Sc (Scandium) is not considered a transition metal. It is classified as a rare earth element.
The element symbol Sc stands for scandium. Scandium is a silvery-white metallic element that is classified as a transition metal. It is commonly used in aerospace and industrial applications due to its lightweight and strength properties.
Yes it is definitely true that all transition elements from Scandium to Roentgenium are metals.
Scandium is found in period 4 on the periodic table. It has an atomic number of 21 and is classified as a transition metal.
The element with the atomic number 21 is Scandium. Scandium is the first transition metal and is in Group 3, Period 4 of the Periodic Table. It has 21 electrons in 4 shells with 2 electrons in the outer shell.
Scandium is the smallest d-block element which in the past also made it the smallest transition metal. However, using the accepted modern definition of a transition metal: 'a transition metal is one which forms one or more stable ions which have incompletely filled d orbitals' scandium would not count as a transition metal, as it always forms 3+ ions with no d-electrons. Using this definition, the smallest transition metal would therefore be titanium.
Yes, scandium is classified as a transition metal.
