Given below are two statements:
Statement I:
The number of pairs, from the following, in which {both the ions are coloured} are
\([\text{Sc}^{3+},\text{Ti}^{3+}]\), \([\text{Mn}^{2+},\text{Cr}^{2+}]\), \([\text{Cu}^{2+},\text{Zn}^{2+}]\) and
\([\text{Ni}^{2+},\text{Ti}^{4+}]\).
Statement II:
\(\text{Ti}^{4+}\) is the strongest reducing agent among
\(\text{Th}^{4+}, \text{Ce}^{4+}, \text{Gd}^{3+}\) and \(\text{Eu}^{2+}\).
In the light of the above statements, choose the correct answer.
