Question 1

Question
A transitional element is a d block element that forms at least one ion with an incomplete d sub-shell.
Answer
  • True
  • False

Question 2

Question
the d-block elements would have filled their 4s orbitals before their 3d orbitals( the 4s sub-shell has a lower energy than the 3d sub-shell ).
Answer
  • True
  • False

Question 3

Question
chromium which is a transition metal has its 3d and 4s orbitals half-filled(4s1 3d5)
Answer
  • True
  • False

Question 4

Question
copper only one electron is in the 4s orbital but the 3d orbital is full
Answer
  • True
  • False

Question 5

Question
To form positive ions transition element atoms loose electrons from their 4s sub-shell before their 3d subshell.
Answer
  • True
  • False

Question 6

Question
Properties specific to transition metal compounds in result to of their electron configuration(partially filled d-orbitals):
Answer
  • exist as giant metallic lattices containing delocalised electrons which move to conduct electricity
  • shiny in appearance
  • catalyse chemical reactions
  • high density and melting point and boiling point
  • form coloured compounds
  • form compounds in which they have different oxidation states

Question 7

Question
transition metals from titanium to copper don't form the +2 oxidation state
Answer
  • True
  • False

Question 8

Question
KMnO4 is a purple solid used as a oxidising agent in redox titrations
Answer
  • True
  • False

Question 9

Question
important chemical reactions that are catalysed by transition metals or their compounds
Answer
  • Haber process
  • polymerisation
  • Hydrogenation of alkenes
  • acid hydrolysis
  • Contact process
  • Decomposition of hydrogen peroxide
