When a compound of transition element is dissolved in a solution of salt then it produces____________________?
Correct answer: B. complex ions
- A. simples ions
- B. complex ions
- C. double salts
- D. strong anions
Explanation
A coordination compound retains its metal-ligand bonding in solution, so it produces complex ions such as [Cu(NH3)4]2+ rather than completely separate simple ions. Students may choose double salts because both contain more than one ionic component, but double salts dissociate into their constituent simple ions in water.

About Electronic Structure of d-Block Elements
The electronic structure of d-block elements covers the filling of the (n-1)d and ns orbitals, general electronic configurations, and the exceptions shown by chromium and copper. It explains how partially filled d orbitals produce variable oxidation states, coloured ions, magnetic behaviour and complex formation, while distinguishing transition elements from elements with completely filled d subshells.
