The opposite of transition metals are main group elements, which include elements from groups 1, 2, and 13-18 on the Periodic Table. Main group elements typically have predictable properties and are less likely to exhibit variable oxidation states compared to transition metals.
transition metals
Boron is a metalloid, not a metal. Transition metals are metals.

D-block elements are also known as the transition metals.
Actually, it's the other way around. Electrons of transition metals fill d-sublevels, while electrons of inner transition metals fill f-sublevels. Inner transition metals are located in the f-block of the periodic table, while transition metals are located in the d-block.

I believe that the answer you are looking for is Transition Metals.

Now actinoids and lanthanoids are considered as transition metals.
yes they are metals

No. Most of the metals listed are not transition metals and most transition metals are not in the list.
Transition metals have a complex arrangement of electrons.
Metals from the d-block (by opposition with the inner transition metals).
One key physical difference between transition metals and poor metals is that transition metals have high melting and boiling points compared to poor metals. Transition metals also tend to be more malleable and ductile, while poor metals are typically softer and have lower melting points.
