Answer & Solution

Correct Answer

(B) (A) - (II), (B) - (I), (C) - (IV), (D) - (III)

Step-by-step Solution

Detailed explanation

\(Sc (Z=21): [Ar] 3d^1 4s^2\) \(Sc ^{3+}: [Ar] 3d^0 \rightarrow \text{Colorless}\) (A) - (II) \(Cr (Z=24): [Ar] 3d^5 4s^1\) \(Cr ^{3+}: [Ar] 3d^3\) (B) - (I) \(Cu (Z=29): [Ar] 3d^{10} 4s^1\) \(Cu ^{2+}: [Ar] 3d^9\) (C) - (IV) \(Ni (Z=28): [Ar] 3d^8 4s^2\) \(Ni ^{2+}: [Ar] 3d^8\)…
