CAIE A-Level Chemistry 28.1.3 Properties of Transition Elements

Practise recalling variable oxidation states, catalytic behaviour, complex formation and coloured compounds.

Exam points

state variable oxidation states and illustrate them with two stable ions of one transition element
identify catalytic behaviour and complex-ion formation as separate characteristic properties
identify coloured ions or compounds as characteristic while avoiding the claim that every species is coloured

[Maximum number: 1]
