Acidified K2Cr2O7 solution turns green when Na2SO3 is added to it. This is due to the formation of:
- Cr2(SO4)3
- CrO4^2−
- Cr2(SO3)3
- CrSO4
Correct answer: Cr2(SO4)3
Solution
When Na2SO3 is added to acidified K2Cr2O7, the dichromate ion (Cr2O7^2−) is reduced to Cr3+ ions, which combine with sulfate ions to form Cr2(SO4)3, giving the solution a green color.
