The transition elements are what type of elements?

All are metals

300

How is the conductivity of semiconductors changed?

By adding several different pure metals to make it conduct more electricity

Mendeleev used the Periodicity as part of his design. What does Periodicity mean?

Periodicity is the tendency to recur at regular intervals. The elements have properties that re occur at specific intervals.
