What are properties of transition metals?

  • high density

  • high melting points

  • Form coloured compounds

  • Act as catalysts

2
New cards

Do transition metals have high or low densities?

High

3
New cards

Compare the hardness of transition metals and the Group 1 metals.

Transition metals are much harder that group 1 metals

4
New cards

How do melting points of transition metals compare to those of Group 1 metals?

Transition metals have a much higher melting point

5
New cards

Are transition metals more reactive than Group 1 metals?

Transition metals are much less reactive

6
New cards

How do Group a metals and transition metals differ in their reactions with oxygen?

group one metals tarnish quickly I’m the presence of oxygen, forming metal oxides.

Transition metals react much more slowly

New cards

Compare the reactivity of Group 1 metals and transition metals with water, oxygen and halogens

Group 1 metals react with water, oxygen and halogens while transition metals either react very slowly or do not react at all with these substances
