Which of the following coordination entities is expected to exhibit the maximum value of magnetic moment (spin-only)?
\[
(\mathrm{Mn}=25,\ \mathrm{Fe}=26,\ \mathrm{Co}=27)
\]
Show Hint
For octahedral complexes:
Strong field ligands (CN$^-$, CO, NO$_2^-$) $\rightarrow$ low spin.
Weak field ligands (F$^-$, H$_2$O, Cl$^-$) $\rightarrow$ high spin.
More unpaired electrons imply a larger magnetic moment.
