the orbitals of d
The D Block Elements
The D block elements include the transition
metals. The transition metals are those d block elements with a partially filled d sublevel in one of its oxidation states.
Since the s and d sublevels are very close in energy, the d block elements show certain special characteristics including:
1. Multiple oxidation states
2. The ability to form complex ions 3. Colored compounds
The D Block Elements
The d electrons are close in energy to the s electrons. D block elements may lose 1 or more d electrons as well as s electrons. Hence they often have multiple oxidation states
Multiple Oxidation States
There is no sudden sharp increase in ionization energy as one proceed through the d electrons as there would be with the s block.
D block elements can lose or share d electrons as well as s electrons, allowing for multiple oxidation states.
Most d Block elements have a +2 oxidation State
which corresponds to the loss of the two s electrons. This is especially true on the right side of the d
block, but less true on the left.
---- For example Sc+2 does not exist, and Ti+2 is unstable, oxidizing
Complex Ions
The ions of the d block and the lower p block have unfilled d or p orbitals.
These orbitals can accept electrons either an ion or polar molecule, to form a dative bond. This attraction results in the formation of a
complex ion.
A complex ion is made up of two or more ions
or polar molecules joined together.
Complex Ions
Compounds that are formed with
complex ions are called

The D Block Colored Compounds
In an isolated atom all of the d sublevel electrons
have the same energy.
When an atom is surrounded by charged ions or polar molecules, the electric field from these ions or
molecules has a unequal effect on the energies of the various d orbitals and d electrons.
The colors of the ions and complex ions of d block elements depends on a variety of factors including:
– The particular element – The oxidation state
– The kind of ligands bound to the element
Colors in the D Block
The presence of a partially filled d sublevels in a transition element results in colored compounds. Elements with completely full or completely empty subshells are colorless,
– For example Zinc which has a full d subshell. Its compounds are white
A transition metal ion exhibits color, if it absorbs light in the visible range (400-700
nanometers)
If the compound absorbs a

Colors and d Electron
Transitions
The d orbitals may split into two groups so that two orbitals are at a lower energy than the other three
The difference in energy of these orbitals varies slightly with the nature of the ligand or ion surrounding the
metal ion
When white light passes through a compound of a transition metal, light of a particular frequency is absorbed as an electron is promoted from a lower energy d orbital to a higher one.
When the energy of the transition: ∆E =h may occur in
Magnetic Properties
Paramagnetism --- Molecules with one or more unpaired electrons are
attracted to a magnetic field. The more unpaired electrons in the
molecule the stronger the attraction. This type of behavior is called
Diamagnetism --- Substances with no unpaired electrons are weakly repelled by a magnetic field.
Transition metal complexes with unpaired electrons exhibit simple paramagnetism.
The degree of paramagnetism
Catalytic Behavior
Many D block elements are
catalysts for various reactions
Catalysts speed up the rate of a
chemical reaction with out being consumed.
The transition metals form complex ions with species that can donate lone pairs of electrons.
This results in close contact between the metal ion and the ligand.
Some Common D Block
Catalysts
Examples of D block elements that are
used as catalysts:
1. Platnium or
rhodium is used in a catalytic converter
2. MnO2 catalyzes the decomposition
of hydrogen peroxide 3. V2O5 is a catalyst for
