Step-by-step solution

[Cr(CN)6]3−{\left[Cr ( CN{)}_{6}\right]}^{3 -} ion, oxidation state of CrCr is +3 and its valence shell electronic configuration is 3d33{d}^{3}. There are 33 unpaired electrons in 3d3d orbital.

(A). [Cr(CN)6]3−{\left[Cr ( CN{)}_{6}\right]}^{3 -}
Match List-I with List-II LIST-I Coordination Complex LIST-II Number of unpaired electrons A. [Cr ( CN ) _ 6 ] ^ 3 - I.
No. of unpaired electrons =3= 3

[Fe(H2O)6]2+{\left[Fe{\left({H}_{2}O\right)}_{6}\right]}^{2 +} ion, oxidation state of FeFe is +2 and its valence shell electronic configuration is 3d63{d}^{6}. There are 4 unpaired electrons in 3d orbital. So, you can say the hybridisation here would be sp3d2{sp}^{3}{d}^{2}.

(B). [Fe(H2O)6]2+{\left[Fe{\left({H}_{2}O\right)}_{6}\right]}^{2 +}
Match List-I with List-II LIST-I Coordination Complex LIST-II Number of unpaired electrons A. [Cr ( CN ) _ 6 ] ^ 3 - I.
No. of unpaired electrons =4= 4

[Co(NH3)6]3+{\left[Co{\left({NH}_{3}\right)}_{6}\right]}^{3 +} in this oxidation state of central metal atom is +3+ 3 and it has no unpaired electrons.
(C). [Co(NH3)6]3+{\left[Co{\left({NH}_{3}\right)}_{6}\right]}^{3 +}
Match List-I with List-II LIST-I Coordination Complex LIST-II Number of unpaired electrons A. [Cr ( CN ) _ 6 ] ^ 3 - I.
No. of unpaired electrons =0= 0

[Ni(NH3)6]2+{\left[Ni{\left({NH}_{3}\right)}_{6}\right]}^{2 +} the oxidation state of NiNi is Ni2+{Ni}^{2 +} and it has two unpaired electrons.
(D) [Ni(NH3)6]2+{\left[Ni{\left({NH}_{3}\right)}_{6}\right]}^{2 +}
Match List-I with List-II LIST-I Coordination Complex LIST-II Number of unpaired electrons A. [Cr ( CN ) _ 6 ] ^ 3 - I.
No. of unpaired electrons =2= 2
So the correct option among the given is AA.
