Detailed Solution

The complex [Cr(NH3​)−6]Cl3​ involved d2sp3 hybridization as it involves (n−1)d orbitals for hybridization. It is an inner orbital complex.

The d-orbital involved in hybridization belongs to the penultimate shell due to the presence of strong ligand.

The complex is paramagnetic since Cr3+ contains unpaired electrons.
