Solution
- They are hard and good conductors of heat and electricity.
- The chemical properties of the interstitial compounds are the same as those of the parent transition metals.
- Their densities are less than that of the parent metal.
- Their melting points are higher than those of the pure metals.
- Interstitial substances are very hard. Certain borides have a hardness that is similar to diamond.
- They are chemically inert.
- Hydrides of metals are powerful reducing agents.
