What is a transition metal?

All transition metals are in the D – block element section which means that they have at least one
ion with a partially filled D sub shell for example, copper is a transition metal because it is a D – block
element where it has one ion with a partially filled D sub shell.

Ligand: A species that possesses a single pair of electrons that it can donate to a central metal ion in
order to form a coordinate or dative bond in a complex ion for example water is a ligand.

Complex: A complex is made up of a metal ion in the centre surrounded by ligands that have formed
coordinate bonds with the metal for example hexaquacopper is a complex ion.

Dative bond: A coordinate covalent bond is another name for a dative bond. It is a type of chemical
bond in which one atom contributes a shared pair of electrons to the bond's formation.
