1.

Give reason:Transition metals have high enthalpy of atomisation.Transition metals form interstitial compounds.

Answer»
  1. This is because of strong metallic bonds in transition metals due to presence of large number of unpaired electrons.
  2. The smaller atoms like H, B, C etc. can tightly fixed in interstitial space of transition metal lattice as well as they form strong metal-metal bond.
