Compared to 3d series the corresponding transition metals of 4d and 5d transition series show high enthalpy of atomization. Explain.

Text Solution

Verified by Experts

Compared to 3d-series the corresponding transition metals of 4d and 5d transition series show high enthalpy of atomisation.
Reason : This is due to the occurrence of much more frequent metal-metal bonding in compounds of heavy transition metals.
