Interpretation:
The reason for highest melting point of Molybdenum among the fifth period elements has to be outlined.
Concept Introduction:
In the periodic classification of elements, elements are classified into s-block elements, p-block elements, d-block elements and f-block elements. The d-block elements (group
All of the Transition elements are metals and belong to period
The transition elements in the fifth group are Yttrium, Zirconium, Niobium, Molybdenum, Technetium, Ruthenium, Rhodium, Palladium, Silver and Cadmium.
