why is cro3 strong oxidising agent while moo3 and  no3 are not

CrO3 is a powerful oxidising agent than MoO3 and WO3. More the acidic character more will be the oxidising power. The  acidic character is  CrO3 > MoO3 > WO3.

Thus the oxidisng strength is CrO3 > MoO3 > WO3

cr3+ can be easily oxidised to cr4+ by losing electrons from d orbital .. so it would make it stable
