Pseudo Noble Gas Electron Configurations

We've learned about electron configurations, and also about how this plays into ionization, given that elements will tend to ionize in such a way so as to achieve noble gas electron configuration. But certain transition metals will seek to attain something slightly different, called pseudo noble gas electron configuration. Let's find out what that means!
