The correct answer is:
CHECK THE SOLUTION.

(i) Ni ; Ni(CO) 4 is tetraderal (sp 3 )

NiCl 2 ·4H 2 O = green

Cu ; Cu 2 Cl 2 colour less

Cu +1 = 3d 10

Highest II nd I.E.

Mn : Mn - +7 oxidation number

MnCl 2 ·4H 2 O - light pink

(ii) . Fe, Fe +3 = 3d 5 4s 0 No. of unpaired electron = 5

Fe +2 = 3d 6 4s 0 No. of unpaired electron = 4

FeSO 4 ·7H 2 O = Pale Green

(iii) Ni(CO) 4 , NiCl 4 ·4H 2 O = green
