Key Stage 4
Meaning
Transition Metals (also known as transition elements) are a block of elements on the Periodic Table between Group 2 and Group 3.

Melting Point
- Transition Metals usually have high melting points.
The transition metal melting points measured in Kelvin are written below each chemical symbol. | |
N.B. The Period 7 elements have not been included as they do not occur naturally and have not been made in large enough quantities to find their melting points. |
Density
- Transition Metals have a high density compared to other elements. However, the Lanthanide
