Question 1

The complex ion NiCl42– is tetrahedral. The number of unpaired electrons in the complex is:

0
1
2
3
4

Question 2

The complex ions of Zn2+ are all colorless. The most likely explanation for this is:

Zn2+ is paramagnetic.
Zn2+ exhibits “d orbital” splittings in its complexes such that they absorb all wavelengths in the visible region.
Since Zn2+ is a d10 ion, it does not absorb visible light even though the “d orbital” splittings are correct for absorbing visible wavelengths.
Zn2+ is not a transition metal ion.
None of these are correct.
