Also appears in 6 model questions (not counted above — model sets aren't actual NEB exam history).

Transition Metals examines the characteristic properties and chemical behavior of transition elements. Students study oxidation states, complex ions, shapes of complexes, d-orbitals, crystal field theory, the origin of color in compounds and the catalytic properties of transition metals.

This page covers Transition Metals, chapter 7 of 22 in the Class 12 Chemistry syllabus set by the National Examination Board (NEB). 9 important questions for this chapter are available, each with a full solution.

For numerical and derivation-based chapters like this one, working through past NEB questions is usually more useful than re-reading notes alone — try solving each important question above before checking the solution, then compare your working step by step.
