Nearly all the transition elements display typical metallic properties such as high tensile strength, ductility, malleability, high thermal and electrical conductivity and metallic lustre. The transition metals (with the exception of Zn, Cd and Hg) are very hard and have low volatility. Their melting and boiling points are high. They have high enthalpies of atomization. lons of the same charge in a given series show progressive decrease in radius with increasing atomic number. However, the variation within a series is quite small. The filling of 4f before 5d orbital results in a regular decrease in atomic radii called Lanthanoid contraction which essentially compensates for the expected increase in atomic size with increasing atomic number. The net result of the lanthanoid contraction is that the second and the third d series exhibit similar radii (e.g., Zr 160 pm, Hf 159 pm) and have very similar physical and chemical properties. There is an increase in ionisation enthalpy along each series of the transition elements from left to right. The first ionisation enthalpy, in general, increases, but the magnitude of the increase in the second and third ionisation enthalpies for the successive elements, is much higher along a series. One of the notable features of a transition elements is the great variety of oxidation states these may show in their compounds.

Molar conductivity \(\left(\Lambda_m\right)\) of a solution at a given concentration (c) is the conductance of volume, V of solution, containing one mole of electrolyte kept between the two electrodes with area of cross-section A and at a distance of unit length. It increases with the decrease in concentration and when the concentration approaches zero, the molar conductivity is called limiting molar
conductivity \(\left(\Lambda_m^0\right)\). For a strong electrolyte, \(\Lambda_m\) increases linearly with dilution and is given by \(\Lambda_m=\Lambda_m^0-A c^{1 / 2}\). The value of the constant A for a given solvent depends on the type of electrolyte along with temperature. According to Kohlrausch law, the value of \(\Lambda_m^0\) for an electrolyte is \(\Lambda_m^0=\nu_{+} \lambda_{+}^0+\nu_{-} \lambda_{-}^0\), where \(\nu_{+}\)and \(\nu_{-}\) are the number of cations and anions, respectively, per molecule of the electrolyte and \(\lambda_{+}^0\) and \(\lambda_{-}^0\) are limiting molar conductivities of cation and anion, respectively. Kohlrausch law finds many applications, like determining the solubility of a sparingly soluble salt, determining the degree of dissociation \(\left(\Lambda_m / \Lambda_m^0\right)\), and the dissociation constant of a weak electrolyte.
The plot between \(\Lambda_m\) and \(c^{1 / 2}\) is a straight line withCUET 2025 Medium - The area enclosed between the graph of \(y=x^3\) and the lines \(x=0, y=1, y=8\) isCUET 2025 Easy
