A.
[Co(CN)6]3- has no unpaired electrons and will be in a low-spin configuration.
[Co(CN)6]-3
electronic configuration of Co : 1s2 2s2 2p6 3s2 3p6 3d6.
CN- is a strong field ligand and as it approaches the metal ion, the electrons must pair up.
The splitting of the d -orbitals into two sets of orbitals in an octahedral [Co(CN6)]3- may be represented as,
Here, for d6 ions, three electrons first enter orbitals with parallel spin put the remaining may pay up in t2g orbital giving rise to low spin complex.
