(A-IV, B-I, C-II, D-V, E-VI) The colors of the aqueous solutions of transition metal salts are as follows:
$A$. $FeSO_4 \cdot 7H_2O$ is light green $(iv)$.
$B$. $NiCl_2 \cdot 4H_2O$ is green $(i)$.
$C$. $MnCl_2 \cdot 4H_2O$ is pale pink $(ii)$.
$D$. $CoCl_2 \cdot 6H_2O$ is pink $(v)$.
$E$. $Cu_2Cl_2$ is colorless $(vi)$ because $Cu^+$ has a $d^{10}$ configuration.
Therefore,the correct matching is: $A-iv, B-i, C-ii, D-v, E-vi$.
