Precious metals such as silver (Ag), gold (Au), and platinum (Pt), along with industrially important metals like iron (Fe), copper (Cu), and titanium (Ti), belong to the transition metals series. In the unit covering the first row (3d) transition metals, the focus will be on electronic configuration, occurrence, and general characteristics. Special emphasis will be given to trends in properties, preparation methods, and properties of important compounds of the first-row transition metals, which include elements from Scandium (Sc) to Zinc (Zn). This comprehensive study will provide insights into the behavior of these elements in the periodic table.
