Solution

The correct order of ligands arranged in increasing field strength is:

Cl−<F−<H2O<Br−<I−<NH3<−OH<CN−

This order is based on the spectrochemical series, which is an empirical list of ligands ordered by the size of the splitting they produce (their field strength). Ligands to the left produce a small splitting (are weak field ligands), and ligands to the right produce a large splitting (are strong field ligands).
