Explain the differences between the rate constants for the following outer sphere

Explain the differences between the rate constants for the following outer sphere self-exchange electron transfer reactions i) -1 [Ru(HO)6]+ / [Ru(HO)]+ k = 4 x 10 M s ii) [Cr(HO)] / [Cr(HO)]+ k = 105 M- s1 iii) [Co(NH3)6]2/[Co(NH3)]+ k = 10-6 M-1 s-1
