    When a mixture of solid \[NaCl,\] solid \[{{K}_{2}}C{{r}_{2}}{{O}_{7}}\] is heated with conc. \[{{H}_{2}}S{{O}_{4}},\] orange red vapours are obtained of the compound [CPMT 1974, 78, 81, 88; DPMT 1983, 89; NCERT 1977; AFMC 1982; AMU 1984]

    A) Chromous chloride

    B) Chromyl chloride

    C) Chromic chloride

    D) Chromic sulphate

    Correct Answer: B

    Solution :

    \[NaCl+{{H}_{2}}S{{O}_{4}}\to NaHS{{O}_{4}}+HCl\] \[{{K}_{2}}C{{r}_{2}}{{O}_{7}}+2{{H}_{2}}S{{O}_{4}}\to 2KHS{{O}_{4}}+2Cr{{O}_{3}}+{{H}_{2}}O\] \[Cr{{O}_{3}}+2HCl\to \underset{\text{(orange }\,\text{red vapour)}}{\mathop{Cr{{O}_{2}}C{{l}_{2}}\,\,\,\,\,\,\,\,\,\,\,\,\,\,\,\,\,}}\,\]
