Is Ti a transition metal

Answer 1

The term transition metal has two possible meanings:

In the past it referred to any element in the d-block of the Periodic Table, which includes groups 3 to 12 on the periodic table. All elements in the d-block are metals.

The modern, IUPAC definition states that a transition metal is "an element whose atom has an incomplete d sub-shell, or which can give rise to cations with an incomplete d sub-shell."

Answer 2

Yes, titanium (Ti) is considered a transition metal. Transition metals are elements that exhibit characteristic properties, such as forming colored compounds and multiple oxidation states, due to the presence of incompletely filled d orbitals in their electron configurations.

Answer 3

Tin is a metal

Answer 4

Yes, Ti is in group 4
