The metal ion whose electronic configuration is not affected by the nature of the ligand and which gives a violet colour in non-luminous flame under hot condition in borax bead test is

Options

A $\mathrm{Mn}^{2+}$
B $\mathrm{Cr}^{3+}$
C $\mathrm{Ni}^{2+}$
D $\mathrm{Ti}^{3+}$

Correct answer

C. $\mathrm{Ni}^{2+}$

Step-by-step solution

\mathrm{Ni}^{2+}

gives violet colour with borax bead test in nonluminous flame under hot conditions.

\mathrm{Ni}^{2+}

has

\mathrm{d}^8

configuration which does not depend on nature of ligand present in octahedral field.

\mathrm{Ni}^{2+} \Rightarrow \mathrm{t}_{2 g}^6 \mathrm{eg}^2
