  1. Co(en)NH34Cl2
  2. Co(en)3Cl2
  3. Co(en)2NH32Cl2
  4. CoNH36Cl2

Solution

Complex Co(en)3Cl2 is most stable complex
among the given complex compounds because
more number of chelate rings are present in this complex as compare to others.

1Co(en)NH34Cl2  1 chelate ring
2Co(en)3Cl2  3 chelate ring
3Co(en)2NH32Cl2  2 chelate ring
