Step-by-step solution
In the complex Fe H 2 O 6 2 + the electronic configuration of Fe 2 + is Ar 3 d 6 . H 2 O is a weak ligand. Hence, the crystal filed splitting can be shown as follows, In the complex Mn H 2 O 6 2 + the electronic configuration of Mn 2 + is Ar 3 d 5 . H 2 O is a weak ligand. Hence, the crystal filed splitting can be shown as follows, In the complex Co NH 3 6 3 + the electronic configuration of Fe 3 + is Ar 3 d 6 . NH 3 is a strong filed ligand. Hence, the crystal filed splitting can be shown as follows, In the comple
