Transition elements have higheffective nuclear charge and a large number of valence electrons. Therefore, they form very strong metallic bonds. As a result, theenthalpy of atomization of transition metals is high.

Hey !!
The transition elements exhibit high enthalpies of atomization because they have large number of unpaired e⁻ in their atoms. Due to which they have stronger interatomic interaction and hence stronger bonding between atoms.
Good luck !!
