A-LEVEL AQA CHEMISTRY • TRANSITION METALS QUESTIONS AND ANSWERS WITH SOLUTIONS 2024 Transition Metal - ANSWER Metal that can form one or more stable ions with a partially filled d sub -level. Scandium isn't a TM because... - ANSWER Has an empty d -shell when Sc3+ Zinc isn't a TM because... - ANSWER Has a full d -shell when Zn2+ Which 2 TM have 1 electron in 4s sub -level to give stability? - ANSWER Chromium and Copper Which sub levels electrons fill up first and empty first? - ANSWER 4s What physical properties do they have? - ANSWER High density High melting and boiling points Similar ionic radii What chemical properties do they have? - ANSWER Form complex ions Form coloured ions Are good catalysts Can exist in variable oxidation states Complex ion - ANSWER Central metal atom/ion surrounded by co -ordinately bonded ligands. Co-ordinate bond (Dative covalent) - ANSWER Covalent bond in which both electrons in the shared pair come from the same atom. Ligand - ANSWER Is an atom/ion/molecule that donates a pair of electrons to a central metal ion to form a transition metal.
