For the first row transition metals the ...

For the first row transition metals the `E^(0)` values are :
`|{:(E^(0),V,Cr,Mn,Fe,Co,Ni,Cu),((M^(2+)|M),-1.18,-0.91,-1.18,-0.44,-0.28,-0.25,+0.34):}|`
Explain the irregularity in the above values.

Text Solution

Verified by Experts

The `E^(0)(M^(2+)|M)` value of a metal is related to the sum of
(i) sublimation energy and ionisation energy of the metal and
(ii) the hydration energy of the metal ion. The irragularity in the `E^(0)(M^(2+)|M)` values of the first row transition metals is due to irregular variation of ionisation enthalpies `(IE_(1)+IE_(2))` and also the sublimation enthalpies.
