Are Transition Metals a solid, liquid or gas?
The majority of the metals are solid.

3 Physical Properties​

 * 1) Hard
 * 2) High melting and boiling point
 * 3) Malleable- one who can be worked with

3 Chemical Properties
3. Closer packing results in stronger bonding so more energy is required to melt or boil transition metals.
 * 1) Higher densities.
 * 2) The ability to form a wide range of coordination compounds.

1. Transition elements may have multiple stable oxidation states which allow them to form many different ionic compounds. 2. Transition metals are the most typical metals found on the Earth. 3.Transition metals are good conductors for both heat and electricity.

2 Common Uses

 * 1) Silver- is used for water purification, jewelry, and electronics.
 * 2) Iron- acetate is used in the dyeing process for cotton and other types of cloths.
