What would happen when a solution of potassium chromate is treated with an excess of dilute nitric acid?
Options
A.Cr2O72- and H2O are formed
B.CrO42- is reduced to + 3 state of Cr
C.CrO42- is oxidized to +7 state of Cr
D.Cr3+ and Cr2O72- are formed
Solution
Cr2O72- + OH- → 2CrO42- + H+. The above equilibrium shifts to L.H.S. on addition of acid.
