Period 4 transition element that forms 2+ ion with a half‐filled d sub level is
Manganese (Mn)
What is the half-filled d sub-level?
Transition metals are an interesting and challenging group of elements. They have perplexing patterns of electron distribution that don’t always follow the electron-filling rules. Predicting how they will form ions is also not always obvious.
Transition metals belong to the d block, meaning that the d sublevel of electrons is in the process of being filled with up to ten electrons. Many transition metals cannot lose enough electrons to attain a noble-gas electron configuration. In addition, the majority of transition metals are capable of adopting ions with different charges. Iron, which forms either the Fe2+ or Fe3+ ions, loses electrons as shown below.
Some transition metals that have relatively few d electrons may attain a noble-gas electron configuration. Scandium is an example. Others may attain configurations with a full d sublevel, such as zinc and copper.
