In oxidation state of manganese is ,
, electronic configuration is , due to the presence of weak field ligand pairing of electrons do not occur, so the number of unpaired electrons are 4.
In oxidation state of is ,
electronic configuration is
Due to the presence of strong field pairing of electrons takes place but one electron remains unpaired, configuration is seen.
In cobalt shows +3 oxidation state and electronic configuration, .
As behaves as a strong field ligand in complexes with cobalt, paring of electrons takes place and no unpaired electrons are left in this case.
