In the transition series, atomic size across a period decreases at first but then remains relatively constant.

The transition elements in a period show a steady increase in electronegativity.

Explanation:

In considering the transition series, we observe that atomic sizes of the elements decreases first and subsequently remain constant. The reason for the initial decrease in atomic size is the increase in nuclear charge across the period. After the first few elements in the period, the atomic size remains relatively constant due to shielding effect of the inner d electrons which opposes the increase in effective nuclear charge.

It is also observed that electro negativity increases smoothly across the period for the transition series. Consequently, the transition series become less electro positive across the period.

Answerthis solution will not form a precipitateexplanationsolubility equilbrium: pbf₂(s) ⇄ pb²⁺(aq) + 2 f⁻(aq)the solubility product expression is $k_{sp} = [\text{pb}^{2+}][\text{f}^- ]^2 = 4 \times 10^{-8}$ (we exclude solids from the equilibrium expression).now suppose we have the trial ion product q, which we can define as $q = [\text{pb}^{2+}]_{\text{initial}} \cdot [\text{f}^- ]^2_{\text{initial}}$ then, we can interpret q as the product of the concentration of the ions that we have and ksp as the product of the ion concentrations that are needed to form a saturated solution.if q > ksp, then that implies that there will be a surplus of ions that exceed the amount that is required to form a saturated solution. a precipitate will then form (the precipitate continually forms until the surplus ions are removed and q is decreased to ksp's value).if q = ksp, the saturated solution that forms is barely saturated and the precipitate will be minimal.if q < ksp, then the ion concentration will not be enough to form a saturated solution (so no precipitate).using our information, we calculate the trial ion product: $\begin{aligned} q & = [\text{pb}^{2+}]_{\text{initial}} \cdot [\text{f}^- ]^2_{\text{initial}} \\ & = (1.9 \times 10^{-3} ) (3.8\times 10^{3})^2 \\ & = 2.7 \times 10^{-8} \end{aligned}$ since q = 2.7 × 10⁻⁸ < ksp = 4 × 10⁻⁸, a precipitate will not form.
