D-Block Ions as Catalysts

In this transition metal ions and redox learning exercise, learners read about the formation of metal ions through oxidation and reduction.

For this transition metal worksheet, high schoolers are given equations for transition metals and their ions. Each equation shows the changes in the colors of the ions when heat, salt, or other substances are added to the metals.

Students conduct an exothermic reaction to investigate the properties of a transition metal. In this periodic table lesson, students identify the transition elements and discuss their properties after watching a video. They conduct an...

While this resource does not provide problems for chemistry learners to solve, it outlines skills that they should have and concepts that they should grasp. Topics include thermodynamics, periodicity, redox equilibria, transition metals,...

Scratch and sniff an introduction to organic chemical reactions. A creative lesson has individuals study the esters commonly used in scratch-and-sniff stickers and advertisements. Following the lab procedure, scholars create the organic...

How can you tell the difference between chemical compounds, when so many of them are white and powdery? The fifth installment in a series of ten videos exposes learners to flame tests and formation of insoluble compounds as methods...

Students investigate transition metals and their oxidation states. In this complex ion and oxidation states lesson plan, students use 6 transition metals and mix them with ligand solutions and oxidizing agents separately. They test their...

High schoolers discuss transition metals, their properties, and where they are located on the periodic table as well as why transition metals are ideal for coins. After discussion, they conduct an experiment using copper in the form of...

[Free Registration/Login may be required to access all resource tools.] Covers transition metal, ionization of transition metals, and inner shell electrons.

Learners discuss transition metals, where they are located on the periodic table, some of the element in the group, and some characteristics of the group. They work in groups to conduct an experiment in which they mix transition metals...
