Detailed Solution

$2 [C o {(N H_{3})}_{6}]^{2 +} + 2 H^{+} + \frac{1}{2} O_{2} \underset{}{\to} 2 [C o {(N H_{3})}_{6}]^{3 +} + H_{2} O$

The unpaired electron in $[C o {(N H_{3})}_{6}]^{+ +}$ is present in $4 d$ orbital. As $4 p$ orbitals are to be involved in Hybridization, hence migration of $e^{-}$ occurs to $4 d .$
