Both transition metals and alkali metals are good conductors of heat and electricity, react with water, and are easily oxidized.
<h3>What are alkali metals and transition metals?</h3>
The alkali metals are elements of group 1 which are lithium (Li), sodium (Na), potassium (K), rubidium (Rb), caesium (Cs), and francium (Fr). They are also known as the s-block elements because they have their outermost electron in an s-orbital.
The alkali metals are shiny, soft, highly reactive metals and readily lose their outermost electron to create cations with charge +1. They can tarnish rapidly in the air due to oxidation by atmospheric moisture and oxygen.
Transition elements or transition metals are elements that have partially filled d-orbitals. An element having a d-subshell that is partially filled with electrons or can form stable cations with an incompletely filled d orbital.
Any element present in the d-block of the modern periodic table which consists of groups 3 to 12, is considered to be a transition element. For example, the mercury in the +2 oxidation state, corresponds to an electronic configuration of (n-1)d¹⁰. Many paramagnetic compounds are formed by transition metals because they have unpaired electrons in the d orbital.

A piece of paper is thin, slighlty smooth, can be white and smells woody. 500 g of butter has a density of 0.911 g/ml and has a volume thus of 548.85 ml. Butter has a color yellow and smells fatty. A glass of milk has a white color, sour smell and taste and the milk occupies the volume of glass. Candle is waxy, can be long or short, can have colors of different varieties and is cylindrical.
Answer: The second law of newton states that the acceleration of an object is dependent upon two variables - the net force acting upon the object and also the mass of the object.
