Group, Period, BlockA block of the periodic table of elements is a set of adjacent groups. The respective highest-energy electrons in each element in a block belong to the same atomic orbital type. Each block is named after its characteristic orbital; thus, the blocks are: s 10Group 10 Period 4 28 Ni 5 46 Pd 6 78 Pt 7 110 Ds The Group 10 elements are: Nickel (28) Palladium (46) Platinum (78) Darmstadtium (110) Key to color coding in table slice on right: Transition metals Color coding for these atomic numbers: At room temperatu, 6A period 6 element is one of the chemical elements in the sixth row (or period of the periodic table of the elements, including the Lanthanides. These are: Chemical elements in the sixth period Group 1 2 3 4 5 6 7 8 9 10 11 12 13 14 15 16 17 18 #Name 55 C, dThe d-block of the periodic table of elements consists of those periodic table groups that contain elements in which, in the atomic ground state, the highest-energy electron is in a d- orbital. The d-block elements are often also known as transition metal
DensityFor other meanings of density, see density (disambiguation Density (symbol: rho Greek: rho) is a measure of mass per unit of volume. The higher an object's density, the higher its mass per volume. The average density of an object equals its total mass div, Hardness 21450 kg/m³Kilogram per cubic metre is the SI measure of density and is represented as kg/m³, where kg stands for kilogram and m³ stands for cubic metre. The density of water is about 1000 kg/m³, since a cubic metre of water weighs about a tonne. kg/m³" is sometimes, 3.5

Platinum is a chemical element in the periodic table that has the symbol Pt and atomic number 78. A heavy, malleable, ductile, precious, gray-white transition metal, platinum is resistant to corrosion and occurs in some nickel and copper ores along with some native deposits. Platinum is used in jewelry, laboratory equipment, electrical contacts, dentistry, and anti- pollution devices in automobiles.
