In Cr2O72–, the valence shell electron configuration of Cr(VI) is 3d0. Thus Cr(VI) is diamagnetic but coloured due to the charge transfer spectrum.
In (NH4)2 [TiCl6], the valence shell electron configuration of Ti(IV) is 3d0. Thus Ti(IV) is diamagnetic and colourless.
In VOSO4, the valence shell electron configuration of V(IV) is 3d1. Thus V(IV) is paramagnetic and blue coloured due to d-d transition.
In K3[Cu(CN)4], the valence shell electron configuration of Cu(I) is 3d10. Thus Cu(I) is diamagnetic and colourless.
