Transition metals exhibit strong metallic bonding due to delocalized d-electrons, leading to dense and stable lattice structures. Most transition metals adopt body-centered cubic (BCC), face-centered cubic (FCC), or hexagonal close-packed (HCP) structures. BCC metals (e.g., vanadium, tungsten) are harder but less dense, while FCC metals (e.g., copper, gold) are more ductile and malleable. HCP metals (e.g., titanium, zinc) offer high strength but limited plasticity. Lattice structures influence mechanical properties such as hardness, conductivity, and melting points. Factors like electron configuration, atomic size, and packing efficiency determine the preferred structure, impacting industrial applications of transition metals.
