Chromium Oxidation States Calculation
Consider the following reactions:
NaCl+K2Cr2O7+H2SO4→A+KHSO4+NaHSO4+H2O
A + NaOH → B + NaCl + H2O
B + H2SO4 + H2O2 → C + Na2SO4 + H2O
In the product 'C', 'X' is the number of
units, 'Y' is the total number oxygen atoms present and 'Z' is the oxidation state of Cr. The value of X + Y + Z is ______ .
NaCl+K2Cr2O7+H2SO4→A+KHSO4+NaHSO4+H2O
A + NaOH → B + NaCl + H2O
B + H2SO4 + H2O2 → C + Na2SO4 + H2O
In the product 'C', 'X' is the number of
units, 'Y' is the total number oxygen atoms present and 'Z' is the oxidation state of Cr. The value of X + Y + Z is ______ .
