What are the transition elements? Write two characteristics of the transition elements ?


Elements that possess incompletely filled d-orbitals either in their ground state or in any of their oxidation states are known as transition elements. The name transition element given to the elements of d-block is only because of their position between s-block and p-block elements.

Characteristics of transition elements are as follows:


1. They show paramagnetic behaviour.

2. They show variable oxidation states.

3. They exhibit catalytic properties.

4. They generally form complex compounds.

5. They generally form coloured compounds.
