Effective Atomic number is 36
Effective Atomic Number (EAN) is given as the contribution of each ligand to the central metal atom.
EAN = Atomic number of central metal atom - charge on central metal atom + 2(number of ligands).
Atomic number of Cobalt = 27
Charge on Cobalt = +3
Number of ligands = 6
Contribution of ligands = 12 electrons
EAN = 27 - 3 + 12 = 36
