The total number of unpaired electrons present in and is

Answer:
1.00
Solution:

CoNH36Cl2
Co2+:[Ar] 3d74 s04p0
For strong field ligand and d7 configuration: t2g2,2,2 eg1,0 
Total 1 unpaired electron is present.
CoNH36Cl3
Co3+:[Ar]3 d64 s04p0
The hybridisation of the complex is d2sp3 hybridisation.
NH3 acts as strong field ligand, because Δ0>P.E..
So here all electrons becomes paired.
