Detailed Solution

In [Ti(H2​O)6​]4+, oxidation state of Ti = +4 electronic configuration = d0 number of unpaired electron = 0

In [Mn(H2​O)6​]2+ ,oxidation state of Mn = +2 ,electronic configuration = d5 number of unpaired electron = 5

In [Cr(H2​O)6​]3+ oxidation state of Cr = +3 electronic configuration = d3 number of unpaired electron = 3

Magnetic moment is directly proportional to the number of unpaired electrons.

Hence, the of magnetic moment becomes X<Z<Y
