(B) I, III only

Step-by-step Solution

Detailed explanation

\begin{aligned} & \text {} \mathrm{CrCl}_3, 6 \mathrm{H}_2 \mathrm{O}=\left[\mathrm{Cr}\left(\mathrm{H}_2 \mathrm{O}\right)_6\right] \mathrm{Cl}_3,\left[\mathrm{Cr}\left(\mathrm{H}_2 \mathrm{O}\right)_5 \mathrm{Cl}\right] \\ & \mathrm{Cl}_2, \ldots \\ & \mathrm{BaCl}_2 \cdot 2…
