    When hydrogen peroxide is added to acidified potassium dichromate, a blue colour is produced due to formation of

    A) \[CrC{{O}_{3}}\]

    B)                        \[C{{r}_{2}}{{O}_{3}}\]

    C) \[Cr{{O}_{5}}\] 

    D)        \[CrO_{4}^{2-}\]

    Correct Answer: C

    Solution :

    \[{{H}_{2}}{{O}_{2}}\]oxidises the  acidified potassium dichromate solution into blue peroxide of chromium,\[Cr{{O}_{5}}\]. \[CrO_{7}^{2-}+2{{H}^{+}}+4{{H}_{2}}{{O}_{2}}\xrightarrow{{}}2Cr{{O}_{5}}+5{{H}_{2}}O\]
