Detailed Solution

For the same central metal ion, the CFSE increases with increase in strength of the ligand. The order of strength of ligand is given by the spectrochemical series :

I<Br<SCN<Cl<S2<F<OH<C2O42<H2O<NCS<EDTA4<NH3< en <CN<CO

Thus, the order of CFSE of given complexes will be :

CoF63-(A) < CoH2O63+(B) < CoNH363+(C) < Coen33+(D).
