Answer:
-3
Explanation:
The oxidation state or oxidation number of an atom is the total number of electrons that an atom either gains or loses in order to form a chemical bond with another atom.
The complex anion here is [Cr(CN)6]3-.
Now, as the oxidation state of CN or cyanide ligand is -1, and if we suppose the oxidation state of Cr to be 'x', then; x - 6 = -3 (overall charge on the anion),
so x= +3. Hence the oxidation state of Chromium in this complex hexacyanochromium (III) anion comes out to be -3.

Answer:
Explanation:
Examples of extended structures could include sodium chloride or diamonds. Examples of molecular-level models could include drawings, 3D ball and stick structures, or computer representations showing different molecules with different types of atoms.]
Answer:
See explanation
Explanation:
The p orbital actually consists of a set of degenerate orbitals. Degenerate orbitals are orbitals having exactly the same amount of energy.
So we have the px, py and pz orbitals all having exactly the same energy but have different orientations in space. These are the degenerate orbitals in the p- sublevel.
