- Why Manganese has lower melting point than Chromium?
- Why do transition metals of 3d series have lower melting points as compared to 4d series?
- In the third transition series, identify and name the metal with the highest melting point.

उत्तर
- Manganese is having lower melting point as compared to chromium, as it has highest number of unpaired electrons, strong interatomic metal bonding, hence no delocalisation of electrons.
- There is much more frequent metal-metal bonding in compounds of the heavy transition metals i.e 4d and 5d series, which accounts for lower melting point of 3d series.
