Answer:
co+2
Explanation:
Cr3+ has a symmetrical electron distribution and will only have spin magnetic moment contribution whereas Co2+ has no symmetrical distribution of electrons so it will have orbital magnetic moment and spin magnetic moment contribution. Therefore, the total magnetic moment for Co2+ will be higher than Cr3+.
