Among s block metals and transition metals, which are more metalic?? |
|
Answer» tion:Most compounds of transition METALS are paramagnetic, whereas virtually all compounds of the p-block elements are diamagnetic. The ELECTRONEGATIVITIES of the first-row transition metals INCREASE smoothly from Sc (χ = 1.4) to Cu (χ = 1.9). Thus Sc is a RATHER active metal, whereas Cu is much less REACTIVE. |
