Question

Which of the following point is not true about enthalpy of atomization regarding transition metals?

• A. They have high enthalpies of atomization
• B. Transition metals of the second and third series have greater enthalpies of atomisation than the corresponding elements of the first series.
• C. Metals with very high enthalpy of atomisation tend to be noble in their reactions
• D. Transition metals of the second and third series have lower enthalpies of atomisation than the corresponding elements of the first series.

Answer 1

The correct option is D

Transition metals of the second and third series have lower enthalpies of atomisation than the corresponding elements of the first series.

Transition metals of the second and third series have lower enthalpies of atomisation than the corresponding elements of the first series.
