Detailed Solution

  • In HgCl2, the electronic configuration of Hg2+ is [Xe]4f145d10. As there is no unpaired electrons in Hg2+, therefore HgCl2 is diamagnetic. 
  • The oxidation state of Cu in CuCl is +1 and its outer electronic configuration becomes 3d10. Because of having paired electrons, it is diamagnetic. 
  • The oxidation of Ti in TiO2 is +4 and its electronic configuration becomes [Ar]. Therefore, it is diamagnetic.
