Zn,Cd,Hg are soft metals
  • 2 answers

Priyanka Shinde 8 years ago

In Zn,Cd & Hg all electrons in d-subshell are paired. Hence metallic bonds are weak.

Manpreet Singh 8 years ago

They are soft metal because d-orbital of these metals are completely filled so they have not unpaired electrons who overlap to form strong metallic bond that's why they are soft metal
