$sp^3d^2$,paramagnetic with four unpaired electrons

(B) In $[MnCl_6]^{3-}$,the oxidation state of $Mn$ is $+3$.The electronic configuration of $Mn^{3+}$ is $[Ar] 3d^4$.Since $Cl^-$ is a weak field ligand $(WFL)$,it does not cause pairing of electrons in the $3d$ orbitals.Therefore,the hybridization involved is $sp^3d^2$ (outer orbital complex).The $3d^4$ configuration has $4$ unpaired electrons,making it paramagnetic.
