What else can I help you with?
Are transition metals highly coloured?
The transition metals themselves are not particularly highly coloured. Gold is golden, copper is copper but the majority are grey or silver with a greater or lesser degree of shine.The compounds formed by transition metals (as opposed to those of group one and two metals) are highly coloured and as with all metals they all burn with distinctive flame colours.
What is a blend of metals that has properties different from the pure metals?
That is called an alloy.
Why are transition metals ten columns wide?

What element family does the element iron belong to?
The element family that iron belongs to on the periodic table is the transition metals family. Other elements in this family include cobalt and nickel.
What are properties of metaloids?
As their name suggests, metalloids possess characteristics of metals and nonmetals. Typical characteristics of metals include a shiny luster, some degree of malleability and an ability to conduct electricity or heat. Nonmetals are typically nonlustrous, brittle and poor conductors of electricity.
How do the properties of the transition element compare with those of the alkali metals and alkaline-earth metals?
Transition state metals include a wide variety of metals; they include iron, gold, and Mercury which all have strikingly different properties (hard, soft, and liquid, for example). Nonetheless, a comparison can be made between the transition state metals and the alkali and alkaline earth metals; transition state metals are not as chemically active (some transition state metals are actually inert, such as platinum).
Why do metals share properties with other transition metals in their period?
The physical properties of transition metals are determined by their electron configurations. Most transition metals are hard solids with relatively high melting and boiling points. Differences in properties among transition metals are based on the ability of unpaired d electrons to move into the valence level. The more unpaired electrons in the d sublevel, the greater the hardness and the higher the melting and boiling points.
The metals that do not fit in with the properties of any other family?
The transition metals are known for their variable oxidation states, forming colorful compounds and acting as catalysts. Some transition metals do not conform to the properties of other metals due to their unique electron configurations and bonding characteristics. This group includes elements like mercury, which behaves like a transition metal but also exhibits characteristics of the post-transition metals.
What are general properties of a metalloid?
The general properties of a metalloid are a combination of the properties of both metals and non-metals. Aside from those properties, they have the unique property of being semi-conductors.
What side of a periodic table of elements has metallic properties?
the groups of alkali metals, alkaline earth metals, transition metals, and other metal are all metals and some of the metalloids have metallic properties and the alkali, alkaline are on the left, transition metals are in the middle, other metals are located directly next to the transition metals and the metalloids are next to the other metals, and then you have halogens and Nobel gases, Lanthanides and Actinides which are all gases and rare earth.
What are semiametals?
As we look across the periodic table from left to right, we see metals on the left, transition metals through the middle and nonmetals on the right. What we left out was that group of elements between the transition metals and the nonmetals, and these semimetals are called metalloids.Metaloids have properties that are in between those of transition metals and nonmetals, or perhaps properties that are some combination of those of transition metals and nonmetals. The elements in this group include boron, silicon, germanium, arsenic, antimony and tellurium.
What are the unique properties and applications of transition metal rare earth metals?
Transition metals and rare earth metals have unique properties that make them valuable in various applications. Transition metals have high melting points, conductivity, and malleability, making them useful in construction, electronics, and transportation. Rare earth metals have magnetic and luminescent properties, making them essential in technologies like smartphones, wind turbines, and electric vehicles. Together, these metals play a crucial role in modern technology and industry.
Do the transition elements display metallic or non metallic properties?
Transition elements display metallic properties, such as high electrical and thermal conductivity, malleability, and ductility. However, some transition elements can also exhibit nonmetallic properties depending on their oxidation states and bonding characteristics.
Properties of transition elements at room tempertature?
Transition elements are ALL solid metals except for mercury (80Hg) which is a liquid.
How would you describe the elements in groups 3-12?
Transition Metals; The general properties of the transition elements areThey are usually high melting point metals.They have several oxidation states.They usually form colored compounds.They are often paramagnetic.
Group 3-12 contain metals known as?
Group 3-12 contains transition metals, which are elements that have partially filled d or f electron shells. These metals have characteristic properties such as high melting points, ductility, and the ability to form colored compounds. Some commonly known transition metals in this group include iron, copper, and zinc.
What are the general properties or the elements in the group to the right in the modern periodic table?
their general properties is that they are all non metals
