    Which one of the following ionic species will impart colour to an aqueous solution? [AIPMT 1998]

    A) \[T{{i}^{4+}}\]

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

    C) \[Z{{n}^{2+}}\]

    D) \[C{{r}^{3+}}\]

    Correct Answer: D

    Solution :

    [d] \[C{{r}^{3+}}=1{{s}^{2}},\text{ }2{{s}^{2}}2{{p}^{6}},\text{ }3{{s}^{2}}3{{p}^{6}}3{{d}^{3}}\]     (coloured)
    \[Z{{n}^{2+}}=1{{s}^{2}},\text{ }2{{s}^{2}},\text{ }2{{p}^{6}},\text{ }3{{s}^{2}}3{{p}^{6}}3{{d}^{10}}\]  (colourless)
    \[C{{u}^{+}}=1{{s}^{2}},\text{ }2{{s}^{2}},\text{ }2{{p}^{6}},\text{ }3{{s}^{2}},\text{ }3{{p}^{6}}3{{d}^{10}}\] (colourless)
    \[T{{i}^{4+}}=\text{ }1{{s}^{2}}2{{s}^{2}}2{{p}^{6}},\text{ }3{{s}^{2}}3{{p}^{6}}\]     (colourless)
    (Colour is produced due to presence of unpaired electron.)
