Correct statements from the following are Choose the correct answer from the options given below :

  1. A, B and C Only
  2. A, C and D Only
  3. A and C Only
  4. B and D Only

Answer

(2) A, C and D Only

Solution

A. Cr2O72- + 14H+ + 6Fe2+ 2Cr3+ + 6Fe3+ + 7H2O, i.e. FeSO4 is oxidised to Fe2(SO4)3 ⇒ correct.

B. Sodium dichromate is hygroscopic and very soluble, so it cannot be weighed accurately; potassium dichromate is the primary standard ⇒ incorrect.

C. 2CrO42- + 2H+ Cr2O72- + H2O; the change depends on pH ⇒ correct.

D. In Cr2O72- two CrO4 tetrahedra share one O atom; the Cr–O–Cr bond angle is 126° ⇒ correct.

∴ A, C and D only

Answer: (2)
