General properties of transition elements
Specific cases:
• Exceptionally Zn ,Cd and Hg have low melting and boiling
point. Because no unpaired electrons. No strong metallic
bond.
• Mn and Tc have abnormally low m.p.
• Group 6 elements have highest m.p in corresponding
period (Cr, Mo, W).
• Tungsten has highest m.p among metals.
