(i) [Co(NH3)6]3+
Here CO is present as CO3+ ion NH3 being strong field ligand pair up the unpaired electron CO.
27CO = [Ar] 3d7 4s2
CO3+ = [Ar] 3d6 4s0
(ii) [Ni(CO)4]
Here Ni is presentin its ground state CO being a strong field ligand, pair up the unpaired electrons of Ni.
(iii) [Pt(NH3)2Cl2 ]
Here Pt is present as Pt2+ ion.
78Pt = [Xe] 5d9 6s1
Pt2+ = [Xe] 5d8 6s0
(iv) [CoF6]3-
Here Co is present as Co3+ ion , F being weak field ligand is unable to pair up its unpaired electrons.
Co3+ = [Ar] 3d6 4s0
(v) [Fe(CO)5]
Here Fe is present in its ground state.
26Fe = [Ar] 3d6 4s2
