The correct statement regarding Ag is 

1. It is a hard metal.
2. It is not a transition element.
3. It has a partially filled d orbital in a +2 oxidation state. Thus, it is a transition element.
4. None of the above

The transition metals generally form coloured compounds due to :

1. Absorption of radiation to promote an electron .
2. Presence of ligands, the d-orbitals split up into two sets of orbitals.
3. Energy required to promote an electron in d subshell is low.
4. All of the above.
