Verified step by step guidance1
Recall the layout of the periodic table, which is divided into blocks: s-block (left side), p-block (right side), d-block (center), and f-block (bottom).
Understand that noble metals are a subset of transition metals known for their resistance to corrosion and oxidation.
Identify that transition metals occupy the d-block, which is the central portion of the periodic table.
Recognize that noble metals such as gold (Au), silver (Ag), and platinum (Pt) are located within the transition metals block, not among alkali metals, lanthanides/actinides, or noble gases.
Conclude that noble metals are generally found in the center of the transition metals block on the periodic table.
