15 Questions

Quiz Description

Online gcequiz.com brings together questions from so many aspects taught in ks1, ks2, ks3, gcse, gce o levels, gce a levels etc. Transition metals and other metals quiz comprises 15 questions with 4 possible answers per question of which one and only one is correct.

As we all know in chemistry, metals are materials which conduct heat and electricity very well. Metals are generally malleable, ductile and can be hammered into sheets. Transition metals are any of the chemical elements that have their valence electron (ie, electrons that participate in the formation of chemical bonds) found in two shells instead of just one shell. Transition metals occupy the middle portion between Group 2 and Group 13.
