The correct order of $\Delta_{0}$ (the octahedral crystal field splitting of d orbitals) values for the following anionic metal complexes is
(a)$\left[\operatorname{Ir}(\mathrm{CN})_{6}\right]^{3-}<\left[\operatorname{Rh}(\mathrm{CN})_{6}\right]^{3-}<\left[\mathrm{RhI}_{6}\right]^{3-}<\left[\mathrm{CoI}_{6}\right]^{3-}$
(b)$\left[\mathrm{CoI}_{6}\right]^{3-}<\left[\mathrm{RhI}_{6}\right]^{3-}<\left[\mathrm{Rh}(\mathrm{CN})_{6}\right]^{3-}<\left[\operatorname{Ir}(\mathrm{CN})_{6}\right]^{3-}$
(c)$\left[\mathrm{CoI}_{6}\right]^{3-}<\left[\mathrm{Rh}(\mathrm{CN})_{6}\right]^{3-}<\left[\mathrm{RhI}_{6}\right]^{3-}<\left[\operatorname{Ir}(\mathrm{CN})_{6}\right]^{3-}$
