    In an oxidation reduction reaction, dichromate \[(C{{r}_{2}}O_{7}^{2-})\] ion is reduced to \[\text{C}{{\text{r}}^{\text{3+}}}\]ion. the  equivalent weight of \[{{\text{K}}_{\text{2}}}\text{C}{{\text{r}}_{\text{2}}}{{\text{O}}_{\text{7}}}\] in this reaction is

    A)  \[\frac{\text{molecuar weight}}{\text{3}}\]

    B)  \[\frac{\text{molecuar weight}}{6}\]

    C)   \[\frac{\text{molecuar weight}}{1}\]

    D)  \[\frac{\text{molecuar weight}}{2}\]

    Correct Answer: B

    Solution :

                     \[{{K}_{2}}\overset{+6}{\mathop{C}}\,{{r}_{2}}{{O}_{7}}+4{{H}_{2}}S{{O}_{4}}\xrightarrow{{}}{{K}_{2}}S{{O}_{4}}+\overset{+3}{\mathop{C}}\,{{r}_{2}}(S{{O}_{4}}){{ & }_{3}}\] \[+\,4{{H}_{2}}O\,\,+\,\,3O\] Equivalent weight \[\text{= }\frac{\text{Molecular}\,\text{weight}}{\text{Chage}\,\text{in}\,\text{oxidiaton number}}\]                 Of atoms present in one molecule                 \[\therefore \] Equivalent weight \[\text{=}\,\frac{\text{Molecular}\,\text{weight}}{\text{2}\,\,\text{ }\!\!\times\!\!\text{ }\,\text{3}}\]                                 \[\text{= }\frac{\text{Molecular}\,\text{weight}}{\text{6}}\]
