Numerical Answer Type:
Enter a numerical value Answer: 160 to 160 +4 marks

Solution & Explanation

### Related Formula textBalanced fusion reaction process description ### Core Logic Write the balanced chemical equation for the industrial preparation stage of chromate salts: 4mathrmFeCr_2O_4 + 8mathrmNa_2CO_3 + 7mathrmO_2 rightarrow 8mathrmNa_2CrO_4 + 2mathrmFe_2O_3 + 8mathrmCO_2 Evaluating the solubilities of the products: * mathrmNa_2CrO_4 is highly soluble in water. * mathrmFe_2O_3 (Iron(III) oxide) is water-insoluble. Molar Mass of mathrmFe_2O_3: M = (2 cdot 55.85) + (3 cdot 16.0) simeq (2 cdot 56) + (3 cdot 16) = 112 + 48 = 160 mathrm~g/mol ### Pattern Recognition Transition metal oxides in high oxidation states with minimal ionic breakdown parameters reliably act as insoluble precipitates in water. ### Chapter Mix Class 12 Chemistry: The d-and f-Block Elements

Q86 jee_main_2024_31_jan_evening Chromyl Chloride Test
In the reaction of potassium dichromate, potassium chloride and sulfuric acid (conc.), the oxidation state of the chromium in the product is (+) ________
Numerical Answer. Answer: 6 to 6

Solution

### Related Formula K_2Cr_2O_7(s) + 4KCl(s) + 6H_2SO_4(conc.) rightarrow 2CrO_2Cl_2(g) + 6KHSO_4 + 3H_2O ### Core Logic This reaction represents the Chromyl Chloride test used to detect the presence of chloride ions. When potassium dichromate is heated with a metal chloride in concentrated sulfuric acid, red vapors of chromyl chloride (CrO_2Cl_2) are evolved. ### Step 1: Oxidation State Calculation In chromyl chloride (CrO_2Cl_2): Let the oxidation state of Chromium be x. Oxygen is typically -2 and Chlorine is -1. x + 2(-2) + 2(-1) = 0 x - 4 - 2 = 0 x = +6 Thus, the oxidation state of Chromium in the product is 6. ### Evaluation Rubric / Model Answer null ### Chapter Mix Class 12 Chemistry: The d- and f-Block Elements Class 11 Chemistry: Practical Chemistry
Q71 jee_main_2024_31_jan_morning Potassium Dichromate and Permanganate
Identify correct statements from below: A. The chromate ion is square planar. B. Dichromates are generally prepared from chromates. C. The green manganate ion is diamagnetic. D. Dark green coloured K_2MnO_4 disproportionates in a neutral or acidic medium to give permanganate. E. With increasing oxidation number of transition metal, ionic character of the oxides decreases. Choose the correct answer from the options given below:
  • A. textB, C, D only
  • B. textA, D, E only
  • C. textA, B, C only
  • D. textB, D, E only

Solution

### Step 1: Statement A Analysis CrO_4^2- (chromate ion) is tetrahedral, not square planar. Statement A is incorrect. ### Step 2: Statement B Analysis 2Na_2CrO_4 + 2H^+ rightarrow Na_2Cr_2O_7 + 2Na^+ + H_2O. Dichromates are indeed prepared from chromates. Statement B is correct. ### Step 3: Statement C Analysis The green manganate ion (MnO_4^2-) has manganese in the +6 oxidation state (3d^1). Thus, it contains 1 unpaired electron and is paramagnetic, not diamagnetic. Statement C is incorrect. ### Step 4: Statement D Analysis Dark green coloured K_2MnO_4 undergoes disproportionation in neutral or acidic media to yield permanganate (MnO_4^-) and manganese dioxide (MnO_2). Statement D is correct. ### Step 5: Statement E Analysis Fajans' rule dictates that as the oxidation state increases, polarizing power increases, leading to a decrease in ionic character (increase in covalent character). Statement E is correct. ### Final Conclusion The correct statements are B, D, and E. ### Evaluation Rubric / Model Answer null ### Chapter Mix Class 12 Chemistry: The d- and f-Block Elements
