Compounds containing elements from this group are described by the crystal field theory and typically follow the 18 electron rule.
Compounds containing elements from this group are described by the crystal field theory and typically follow the 18 electron rule. Two members of this group are common examples of violations to the aufbau principles, placing one electron in their 4s orbital rather than completely filling their highest energy orbital as expected. The third and fourth rows of this group come after the lanthanide and actinide series respectively. On the periodic table, this group of elements includes everything from the group 3 to group 12 elements. For 10 points, name this group of elements that have partially filled d orbitals, which include scandium, titanium and iron.
