Transition elements in the periodic table
Transition elements occupy the middle of the long-form periodic table, between the s-block and the p-block; they are more than 60 elements (over half of the known elements).
The idea, in English
Transition elements occupy the middle of the long-form periodic table, between the s-block and the p-block; they are more than 60 elements (over half of the known elements). They split into main transition elements (d-block) and inner transition elements (f-block: lanthanides and actinides). The chapter studies the main transition elements only.
Explain in Egyptian Arabic
الـ transition elements واقعة في نص الـ long-form periodic table، بين الـ s-block والـ p-block، وعددها أكتر من 60 عنصر (أكتر من نص العناصر المعروفة). بتنقسم لـ main transition elements (الـ d-block) و inner transition elements (الـ f-block: الـ lanthanides والـ actinides)، والفصل ده بيدرس الـ main transition elements تحديدًا.
المطلوب
تحدد مكانها في الجدول وتسمّي النوعين.
Common misconceptions
- Transition elements are a handful of metals.
They are more than half the known elements.
Explain in Egyptian Arabic
لأ، دي أكتر من 60 عنصر، يعني أكتر من نص العناصر المعروفة.
- Lanthanides and actinides are main transition elements studied here.
Lanthanides and actinides are inner transition elements of the f-block, not main transition elements. This chapter studies the main transition elements (the d-block) only.
Explain in Egyptian Arabic
الـ lanthanides والـ actinides دول inner transition elements من الـ f-block، والفصل ده مش بيدرسهم.
