The shortest wavelength mean largest \Delta _{\text{o}} (splitting) value.

them \text{CN}^{\ominus } is SFL which has maximum CFSE.

So, \mathrm{\left[\mathrm{Co}(\mathrm{CN})_6\right]^{3-}} will be \mathrm{d^{2}sp^{3}} and \mathrm{3d^{6}4s^{o}}

Due to SFL all electron will be paired.

So, \mu =0 due to \text{n} =0

Answer = 0
