<p>This paper considers a relation between the emissivity of metals from the V period in Periodic Table while melting process with thermophysical properties surface tension coefficient (<i>γ</i>) and specific heat capacity (<i>C</i>_<i>p</i>). Taking the produced and available experimental data and using the theoretical calculation within Foot’s approximation, we elucidated the laws for emissivity as a function of electronic stricture and interatomic interaction. It was demonstrated that a correlation between the emissivity and parameters <i>γ</i> and <i>C</i>_<i>p</i> has a complicated behavior and this is dictated by general trends (emissivity increases with <i>γ</i>) and by a specific electronic configuration for the given elements. The results underline the importance of considering the periodicity and electronic configuration in forecasting the thermophysical properties of metals in the phase-transition state.</p>
