Quizplus · Accepted Answer

The melting point generally increases across the first transition series metals from left to right. V (Vanadium) has the highest melting point among the given options, which is 1910°C, while Sc (Scandium) has a melting point of 1541°C, Mn (Manganese) has a melting point of 1246°C, and Zn (Zinc) has a melting point of 419.5°C. Therefore, the best choice for the highest melting point is B) V.
