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

Among $\mathrm{V}, \mathrm{Cr}, \mathrm{Zn}, \mathrm{Fe}$, the metal having lowest enthalpy of atomization is
  1. V
  2. $\mathrm{Cr}$
  3. $\mathrm{Zn}$
  4. $\mathrm{Fe}$

Solution

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