As we have learnt,

Energy absorbed by complexes depends upon the sitting energy.

Metal ion remaining save, splitting is greater for strong field chelating ligands.

\therefore Order of sitting in given complexes is

\mathrm{\left [ Ni(en)_{3} \right ]^{2+}}>\mathrm{\left [ Ni(H_{2}O)_{2}en_{2} \right ]^{2+}}> \mathrm{\left [ Ni(H_{2})_{4}en \right ]^{2+}}

(C)                            (A)                                 (B)

hence correct option is 2.
