However, only complexes containing linear, terminal M—C=Se groupings are known for CSe. Also, there are no examples of inner transition-metal thio- or selenocarbonyls. 

The group B elements, or transition elements, are divided into transition metals and inner transition metals. The two sets of inner transition metals, known as the lanthanide and actinide series, are located along the bottom of the periodic table. The rest of the group B elements make up the transition metals. Elements from the lanthanide series are used extensively as phosphors, substances that emit light when struck by electrons. The How It Works at the end of the chapter explains more about phosphors and how images are formed on a television screen. 

Lu, element 71. The gap represents the proper location of the first row of the inner transition metals—that is, lanthanum. La, which is element number 57, through ytterbium, Yb, which is element 70. These elements belong in the sixth period. Similarly, the second row of inner transition metals, the elements actinium, Ac, through nobelium. No, belong in the seventh period between radium, Ra, and lawrencium, Lr. 

Reference has been made already to the existence of a set of inner transition elements, following lanthanum, in which the quantum level being filled is neither the outer quantum level nor the penultimate level, but the next inner. These elements, together with yttrium (a transition metal), were called the rare earths , since they occurred in uncommon mixtures of what were believed to be earths or oxides. With the recognition of their special structure, the elements from lanthanum to lutetium were re-named the lanthanons or lanthanides. They resemble one another very closely, so much so that their separation presented a major problem, since all their compounds are very much alike. They exhibit oxidation state -i-3 and show in this state predominantly ionic characteristics—the ions. 

Group 3 (IIIB) and Inner Transition-Metal Perchlorates. The rare-earth metal perchlorates of yttrium and lanthanum have been reported (53). Tetravalent cerium perchlorate [14338-93-3] 06(0.04)4, and uranium perchlorate have also been identified (54). 

Figure 7.9. Schematic representation of the density of states N(E) in the conduction band of two transition metal electrodes (W and R) and of the definitions of work function O, chemical potential of electrons p, electrochemical potential of electrons or Fermi level p, surface potential x, Galvani (or inner) potential (p and Volta (or outer) potential for the catalyst (W) and for the reference electrode (R). The measured potential difference UWr is by definition the difference in p q>, p and p are spatially uniform O and can vary locally on the metal surfaces 21 the T terms are equal, see Fig. 5.18, for the case of fast spillover, in which case they also vanish for an overall neutral cell Reprinted with permission from The Electrochemical Society.

Thus far, we have focused exclusively upon the block metals. For some, the term transition elements defines just these J-block species for others, it includes the rare earth or lanthanoid elements, sometimes called the inner transition elements . In this chapter, we compare the elements with respect to their valence shells. In doing so, we shall underscore concepts which we have already detailed as well as identifying both differences and similarities between certain aspects of main and inner transition-metal chemistry. We make no attempt to review lanthanoid chemistry at large. Instead our point of departure is the most characteristic feature of lanthanoid chemistry the +3 oxidation state.
