    Among the following ions (hydrated), the colourless metal ion is

    A) \[C{{u}^{+}}\]

    B) \[C{{u}^{2+}}\]

    C)  \[F{{e}^{2+}}\]

    D)  \[M{{n}^{2+}}\]

    Correct Answer: A

    Solution :

     Transitional metal ions having electronic configuration \[(n-1)\,{{d}^{o}}\]or\[(n-1)\,\,{{d}^{10}}\]are colourless while those have \[(n-1)\,{{d}^{1-9}}\] are coloured. \[C{{u}^{+}}:[Ar]\,3{{d}^{10}}:\,colurless\] \[C{{u}^{2+}}:[Ar]\,3{{d}^{9}}:\,\text{coloured}\] \[F{{e}^{2+}}:[Ar]\,3{{d}^{6}}:\,coloured\] \[M{{n}^{2+}}:[Ar]\,3{{d}^{5}}:\text{coloured}\]
