Elisabeth Horne · Answer 1

The middle, or the transitional metals

Explanation:

When naming elements, we use roman numerals to indicate what their charge is. The charge of an element is affected by their number of valence electrons (outermost electrons).

Transitional metals are generally multivalent, meaning that element has more than one possible number of valence electrons. This makes them have more than one possible charge. Roman numerals indicate which charge of that element is used/discussed.
