Which one of the following transition metal oxides is NOT colored?
A) CuO
B) FeO
C) TiO2
D) Mn2O3
Answer is C
The passage says transition elements show color because they have partially filled d orbitals. Therefore, I chose A because the d orbital exception makes Copper's d orbital fully filled.
Am I right or wrong here?
