Which is the transition metal with the smallest atomic mass in group 8?

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.


Is scandium classified as a transition metal?

Yes, scandium is classified as a transition metal.
