Out of the ions `Zn^(2+), Ni^(2+)` and `Cu^(3+)` (At. Nos. Zn=30 Ni=28, Cr=24)

A

only `Zn^(2+)` is colourless and `Ni^(2+)` and `Cr^(3+)` are coloured

B

all three are colourless

C

all three are coloured

D

only `Ni^(2+)` is coloured and `Zn^(2+)` and `Cr^(3+)` are colourless

Text Solution

Verified by Experts

The correct Answer is:
A

`{:("Ion","Electronic","Unpaired"),(,"configuration","electrons"),(Zn^(2+),3d^(10),0),(Ni^(2+),3d^(8),2),(Cu^(3+),3d^(8),2):}`
`Ni^(2+) and Cu^(3+)` have partly filled d - orbital thus coloured but `Zn^(2+)` has completely filled d- orbital, thus colourless.
