Solution

[Ti(H2O)6]3+ The oxidation state of Ti isx+ 6(0) = +3x = +3Ti22 - 3d24s2Ti+3 - 3d1Since it has an unpaired electron this complex is coloured.
Due to the transition of this unpaired electron from t2g to eg orbital, the energy is absorbed during this process and is emitted in the visible region. Thus the complex is a coloured one.
