Question

why do transition metal have high enthalpy of hydration?​

Answer 1

Answer:

$\huge \: \pink {ANSWER:-}$

This is due to their small and large nuclear charge. This is so because when we move along any transition series, the nuclear charge increases and size decreases.......

Answer 2

Answer:

Answer:The transition metal ions are small in size and have high charge. Due to this, the charge/size ratio is high and thus hydration enthalpy is high.
