In both [Cr(CN)6]3&[Cr(H2O)6]3+complex ions the central metal atom chromium is in +3 oxidation state, and has valence configuration 3d34s0.
Under both strong and weak field cases the configuration of Cr+3 is t2g3eg0 with three unpaired electrons (n = 3).
Spin only magnetic moment μs=n(n+2)=3(3+2)=15B.M
The ratio is 1 : 1
