The $\mathrm{VO}_{4}^{3-}$, $\mathrm{CrO}_{4}^{2-}$ and $\mathrm{MnO}_{4}^{-}$ ion exhibit intense ligand to metal charge transfer transition. The wavelengths of this transition follow the order
(a)$\mathrm{CrO}_{4}^{2-}<\mathrm{VO}_{4}^{3-}<\mathrm{MnO}_{4}^{-}$
(b)$\mathrm{MnO}_{4}^{-}<\mathrm{VO}_{4}^{3-}<\mathrm{CrO}_{4}^{2-}$
(c)$\mathrm{VO}_{4}^{3-}<\mathrm{CrO}_{4}^{2-}<\mathrm{MnO}_{4}^{-}$
(d)$\mathrm{CrO}_{4}^{2-}<\mathrm{MnO}_{4}^{2-}<\mathrm{VO}_{4}^{3-}$
