MCQ
Which of the following complex ions is not expected to absorb visible light?
  • $[Ni(CN)_4]^{2-}$
  • B
    $[Cr(NH_3)_6]^{3+}$
  • C
    $[Fe(H_2O)_6]^{2+}$
  • D
    $[Ni(H_2O)_6]^{2+}$

Answer

Correct option: A.
$[Ni(CN)_4]^{2-}$
a
A transition metal complex absorbs visible tight only if it has unpaired electrons.

No unpaired electron so does not absorb visible light.
