A) complete ns subshell
B) small size metal ions
C) incomplete\[(n-1)d\]subshell
D) absorption of light in UV region
Correct Answer: C
Solution :
Most of the compounds of transition metals are coloured in solid state or solution. This is due to their incomplete\[(n-1)d-\]subshell. Their colour arises from the excitation of electron from\[d-\]orbitals of lower energy to \[d-\]orbitals of higher energy (i.e.,\[d-d\] transition).
