Among $\mathrm{V}, \mathrm{Cr}, \mathrm{Zn}, \mathrm{Fe}$, the metal having lowest enthalpy of atomization is

  • A
    V
  • B
    $\mathrm{Cr}$
  • Correct answer
    C
    $\mathrm{Zn}$
  • D
    $\mathrm{Fe}$

Solution

Due to absence of unpaired electrons, $\mathrm{Zn}$ has the lowest enthalpy of atomization.

Hence, the correct answer is option: 'C'.
