Answer:
Mn(Co6)+
Explanation:
The presence of positive charge on the metal carbonyl would resist the flow of the metal electron charge to π* orbitals of CO. This would increase the CO bond order and hence CO in a metal carbonyl cation would absorb at a higher frequency compared to its absorption in a neutral metal carbonyl
