6, 3
C.
3, 6
The formula of dichlorodioxalatochromium (III) is [Cr(Cl2) (Ox)2]3-
Primary valencyof a metal (Cr) in the complex
= oxidation number of that metal
=+ 3
Secondary valency of chromium in complex
= coordination number
=+6
(Coordination number is the number of ligands attached to the central metal ion and oxalate ion is a bidentate ligand ie, can coordinate at two positions).
