The additional stabilization of a metal complex by selective population of the lower-energy d orbitals is called its crystal field stabilization energy (CFSE). The CFSE of a complex can be calculated by multiplying the number of electrons in t2g orbitals by the energy of those orbitals (−0.4Δo), multiplying the number of electrons in eg orbitals by the energy of those orbitals (+0.6Δo), and summing the two.The CFSE is highest for low-spin d6 complexes, which accounts in part for the extraordinarily large number of Co(III) complexes known which is 0.4Δo.
Increasing order of CFSE is : 
Mn2+
