Step-by-Step Verified Solution

[V(H2O)6]3+→2\left[\mathrm{V}\left(\mathrm{H}_2 \mathrm{O}\right)_6\right]^{3+} \rightarrow 2 unpaired electrons

[Cr(H2O)6]2+→4\left[\mathrm{Cr}\left(\mathrm{H}_2 \mathrm{O}\right)_6\right]^{2+} \rightarrow 4 unpaired electrons

Above 2 complex have even number of unpaired electrons.
