Choose the INCORRECT statement about transition elements.
◦ Coordination compounds are formed by coordinate covalent bonds.
◦ The metal ions provide empty d orbitals in coordination compounds.
◦ The ligand supplies one or more pairs of electrons that form coordinate bonds in coordination compounds.
◦ Colored compounds and solutions occur because of electronic transitions that occur within partially filled d orbitals.
◦ Paramagnetism is due to paired electrons.
