reactivity
Heavy metals are typically found in the middle of the periodic table. These heavy metals are often also transition metals.
By the color, obviously. NIckel plated flutes are slightly golden and well, silver plated, they have silver color.
alkaline metals
Metals are usually found in the Earth's crust, in the form of ores.
malleability is when metals can be flattened into thin sheets.
The hardness.
The hardness.
Transition metals tend to have very high melting points.
The early vs. late transition metals differ in their oxidation states (each metal has different possible oxidation states). Electrons have a stronger attraction to the protons in the late transition metals, so the later transition metals form bonds that are harder to break. You can read more about transition metal properties from the links below.Source(s):
Transition elements occupy central block. They are present between group3 to12.
One property of transition metals is that all elements and compounds in transition metals act as a catalyst ( speeds up chemical reactions. )xcool77
Transition metals form ions with incomplete d orbitals.
The transition metals are the ones in the middle of the Periodic Table, between group 2 and group 3. Not sure what you mean by 'Regular Metals', but Iron (Fe) is a transition metal also.
transition metals are not in any groups, however they are elements between group II & III of the periodic table
Metals are located in the left hand side of the periodic table, non metals are located on the right and metalloids are located in between as a 'bridge'.
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).
