Ans: Correct option: B
[Cr (H2O)6]Cl2 and [Fe (H2O)6]Cl2
Due to the creation of a more stable complex ion after obtaining ion, [Cr (H2O)6]Cl2 and [Fe (H2O)6]Cl2 are reduced in nature. Both compounds have a coordination of 6 and so form an octahedral complex. The hybridisation state of is 3 and the oxidation state of is 2+. Hybridization is 3d4 and 3d6 is 2+. Both compounds have unpaired electrons and have weak field ligands. In both compounds, removing electrons is simple.
