Detailed Solution

  • The cobalt ion in  [Co(NH3​)6​]Cl3​ undergoes ds2p3 hybridization to form inner orbital  or low spin or spin paired complex.
  • 6 electrons are present in t2g​ level and 0 electrons are present in eg​ level.
  • The crystal field stabilization energy of [Co(NH3​)6​]Cl3​ is CFSE = 6 × (−0.4Δ0​) + 0 × (0.6Δ0​) = −2.4 Δ0
