do transition metals have high or low melting points
high
do transition metals have high or low reactivity
low
their low reactivity is useful for
not reacting with water and oxygen like for rusting
when we have copper (2) chloride why is there a 2
the 2 signifies a +2 ion
copper chloride has a blue green colour to it why
due to the copper 2+ ions, transition metals are highly coloured
group 1 metals are what colour
white
transition metals can form ions with different what?
charges - this is why we get different colours
when 3d orbitals are filled does their energy drop or increase
they drop
transition metals are from what groups
3-12
transition metals are found in what block
d block as they have incomplete d orbitals
some elements like lead are not transition metals, but they still are part of them why?
lead is able to make multiple ions with different charges
Pb 4+ for example, what does the 4 represent?
4 means the charge not how many there are
