Transition metal compound are coloured d...

Transition metal compound are coloured due to `d-d` and charge transfer tranditoins, Colour due to `d-d` transition is shown by transition metal compounds having `d^(1) and d^(9)` electrons whereas the compounds containing `d^(0) and d^(10)` configurations are intensely coloured due to charge transfer transitions.
Which of the following compound is not coloured

A

`Na_(2)CuCl_(4)`

B

`Na_(2)CdCl_(4)`

C

`K_(4)Fe(CN)_(6)`

D

`K_(3)Fe(CN)_(6)`

Text Solution

Verified by Experts

The correct Answer is:
B

`Na_(2)CdCl_(4)` contains `Cd^(2+)` which has `4d^(10)` configuration and thus colourless.
