Solution

The correct option is C ${[M n C l_{4}]}_{4}^{2 -} > {[C o C l_{4}]}_{4}^{2 -} > {[F e {(C N)}_{6}]}_{6}^{4 -}$
$C l^{-}$ is a weak ligand while $C N^{-}$ is a strong ligand.
In $[M n C l_{4}]^{2} : d^{5}$ configuration and 5 unpaired electrons
In $[C o C l_{4}]^{2} : d^{7}$ configuration and 3 unpaired electrons
In $[F e (C N)_{6}]^{4} : d^{6}$ configuration, low spin complex and 0 unpaired electrons
More the number of unpaired electrons, more the value of magnetic moment. Hence, the order is ${[M n C l_{4}]}_{4}^{2 -} > {[C o C l_{4}]}_{4}^{2 -} > {[F e {(C N)}_{6}]}_{6}^{4 -}$
