Verified Solution

Answer & Solution

Correct Answer

(D) \(\left[ Mn \left( H _2 O \right)_6\right]^{2+}\)

Step-by-step Solution

Detailed explanation

\(\left[ Fe \left( H _2 O \right)_6\right]^{2+}\): \(Fe^{2+} \Rightarrow 3d^6 \Rightarrow n = 4\) \(\left[ Cr \left( H _2 O \right)_6\right]^{2+}\): \(Cr^{2+} \Rightarrow 3d^4 \Rightarrow n = 4\) \(\left[ Co \left( H _2 O \right)_6\right]^{2+}\):…
