Hello friend !!!

Here's the answer you are looking for

Let us consider the oxidation number of Cr is x

Since Cr2(SO4)3 is a molecule, it's oxidation number is 0.

And the oxidation number of (SO4) is always -2.

So, mathematically,

2x + 3(-2) = 0

2x = +6

x = +3

Therefore, the oxidation number of Cr in Cr2(SO4)3 is +3.
