Total: 10
Write the formula of an oxo-anion of chromium (Cr) in which it shows the oxidation state equal to its group number.
Solution:
Formula of an oxo-anion of chromium ( Cr ) in which it shows the oxidation state equal to its group number (6) is Cr 2 O 7 2 −
2 Cr + ( − 2 × 7 ) = − 2
2 Cr − 14 = − 2
2 Cr = + 12
Cr = + 6
Oxidation state ofCr in Cr 2 O 7 2 − is +6 which is equal to its group number 6 .
