Question

which of the zn2+, fe3+ and Mn2+ are expected to be coloured and why?

Answer 1

Transition metal compounds are often colored because of transitions of electrons between d-orbitals of different energy. (see Transition metal#Coloured compounds). ... Similarly, color is due to the energy absorbed by the compound, when an electron transitions from the HOMO to the LUMO.
