Solution

In the complex FeH2O62+ the electronic configuration of Fe2+ is Ar3d6H2O is a weak ligand. Hence, the crystal filed splitting can be shown as follows,

In the complex MnH2O62+ the electronic configuration of Mn2+ is Ar3d5H2O is a weak ligand. Hence, the crystal filed splitting can be shown as follows,

In the complex CoNH363+ the electronic configuration of Fe3+ is Ar3d6NH3 is a strong filed ligand. Hence, the crystal filed splitting can be shown as follows,

 

 

In the complex FeCl4- the electronic configuration of Fe3+ is Ar3d5Cl- is a weak ligand. Hence, the crystal filed splitting can be shown as follows,

 

 

 

In the complex CoCl42- the electronic configuration of Co2+ is Ar3d7Cl- is a weak ligand. Hence, the crystal filed splitting can be shown as follows,
