The d-orbital has two electron. So, filling of d-orbitals can be t^{2}_{2g}

In V^{2+}  d-orbital has three electron. So, the filling of d-orbital can be t^{3}_{2g}
Similarly

Cr^{3+}(Ions) d^{3} (No. of d electrons) t^{3}_{2g} (Filling of d-orbitals)
Mn^{2+} d^{5} t^{3}_{2g}, e^{2}_{g}
Fe^{2+} d^{6} t^{4}_{2g}, e^{2}_{g}
Fe^{3+} d^{5} t^{3}_{2g}, e^{2}_{g}
Co^{2+} d^{7} t^{5}_{2g}, e^{2}_{g}
Ni^{2+} d^{8} t^{6}_{2g}, e^{2}_{g}
Cu^{2+} d^{9} t^{6}_{2g}, e^{3}_{g}
