The correct order of increasing intensity (molar absorptivity) of the UV-visible absorption bands for the ions $\left[\mathrm{Ti}\left(\mathrm{H}_{2} \mathrm{O}\right)_{6}\right]^{3+},\left[\mathrm{Mn}\left(\mathrm{H}_{2} \mathrm{O}\right)_{6}\right]^{2+},\left[\mathrm{CrO}_{4}\right]^{2-}$, and $\left[\mathrm{NiCl}_{4}\right]^{2-}$ is
(a)$\left[\mathrm{Ti}\left(\mathrm{H}_{2} \mathrm{O}\right)_{6}\right]^{3+}<\left[\mathrm{NiCl}_{4}\right]^{2-}<\left[\mathrm{CrO}_{4}\right]^{2-}<\left[\mathrm{Mn}\left(\mathrm{H}_{2} \mathrm{O}\right)_{6}\right]^{2+}$
(b)$\left[\mathrm{Ti}\left(\mathrm{H}_{2} \mathrm{O}\right)_{6}\right]^{3+}<\left[\mathrm{Mn}\left(\mathrm{H}_{2} \mathrm{O}\right)_{6}\right]^{2+}<\left[\mathrm{CrO}_{4}\right]^{2-}<\left[\mathrm{NiCl}_{4}\right]^{2-}$
(c)$\left[\mathrm{Mn}\left(\mathrm{H}_{2} \mathrm{O}\right)_{6}\right]^{2+}<\left[\mathrm{Ti}\left(\mathrm{H}_{2} \mathrm{O}\right)_{6}\right]^{3+}<\left[\mathrm{NiCl}_{4}\right]^{2-}<\left[\mathrm{CrO}_{4}\right]^{2-}$
(d)$\left[\mathrm{NiCl}_{4}\right]^{2-}<\left[\mathrm{Ti}\left(\mathrm{H}_{2} \mathrm{O}\right)_{6}\right]^{3+}<\left[\mathrm{Mn}\left(\mathrm{H}_{2} \mathrm{O}\right)_{6}\right]^{2+}<\left[\mathrm{CrO}_{4}\right]^{2-}$
