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.

About Transition Metals

Transition metals
Period 4 21Sc 22Ti 23V 24Cr 25Mn 26Fe 27Co 28Ni 29Cu 30Zn
Period 5 39Y 40Zr 41Nb 42Mo 43Tc 44Ru 45Rh 46Pd 47Ag 48Cd
Period 6 57La 72Hf 73Ta 74W 75Re 76Os 77Ir 78Pt 79Au 80Hg
Period 7 89Ac 104Rf 105Db 106Sg 107Bh 108Hs 109Mt 110Ds 111Rg 112Cn

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, many of the Actinides also have a density.
The transition metal densities measured in kilograms per metre cubed 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 [density|densities]].
