Solution 1

The color of a complex ion depends on the transition of electrons between the d-orbitals of the central metal ion.

A. [Sc(H2O)6]3+: Scandium ion has a 3d0 configuration. There are no d-electrons for transitions and hence, it is colorless.

B. [Cr(H2O)6]3+: Chromium ion has a 3d3 configuration. The Knowee AI is a powerful AI-powered study tool designed to help you to solve study problem.
