- Is any part of the picture text wrong?
I find the one (4s) + 3(4p) + 2(d) incorrect according to my knowledge.
Chromium 2+ ion uses only unfilled d-orbitals to form 6 dative bonds?

Start by finding the electronic configuration of a chromium atom - which orbitals are occupied.
Then move on to the configuration of a Cr 2+ ion.
Then which orbitals are empty.
