Answer:

Cr(OH)2(s), Na+(aq), and NO3−(aq)

Explanation:

Let is consider the molecular equation;

2NaOH(aq) + Cr(NO3)2(aq) -----> 2NaNO3(aq) + Cr(OH)2(s)

This is a double displacement or double replacement reaction. The reacting species exchange their partners. We can see here that both the sodium ion and chromium II ion both exchanged partners and picked up each others partners in the product.

Sodium ions and nitrate ions now remain in the solution while chromium II hydroxide which is insoluble is precipitated out of the solution as a solid hence the answer.
