Enthalpy of atomisation is the energy required to break a solid metal into isolated gaseous atoms. It depends on metallic bond strength, which is influenced by number of unpaired d-electrons available for bonding.
Among d block metals, zinc (Zn) has the lowest enthalpy of atomisation because it has the electronic configuration . Its d-orbitals are completely filled (no unpaired electrons), resulting in weaker metallic bonding compared to others with unpaired electrons.
But it is not transition metal
So Final answer: Cu
