A

The complex involves `d^2sp^3` hybridization and is octahedral in shape

B

the complex is paramagnetic

C

the complex is diamagnetic

D

Text Solution

Verified by Experts

The correct Answer is:
C

Chromium in the complex exists as
The complex involves `d^2sp^3` hybridization. It has octahedral shape and is paramagnetic due to three unpaired electrons. The complex gives white precipitate with `Cl^(-)` ions.
