Solution

The correct option is D CoCl3.3NH3
As in octahedral complex, [CoCl3.3NH3] doesn't form any ion so it is non-conducting.
But other complex give atleast one ion so they are conductor.
CoCl3.4NH3 gives two ion (one complex +one chloride).
CoCl3.5NH3 gives three ion (one complex + two chloride).
