Question

Is the reason for k3 falling so much because en is a bulky ligand?

The equilibrium constants for the successive reaction of ethylenediamine with Co²“, Ni²“, and
Cu²* are as follows.
[M(OH2)6]²* + en
[M(en)(OH2)«]²+ + en
[M(en)2(OH2)2]2* + en
[M(en)(OH2)4]²* + 2H2O
[M(en)2(OH2)2]²+ +2H2O
[M(en)3]?+ +2H2O
