Describe the oxidising action of potassium dichromate and write the ionicequations for its reaction with:
(i) iodide
(ii) iron
(II) solution and
(iii) H2S
K2Cr2O7 acts as a very strong oxidising agent in the acidic medium.
K2Cr2O7 + 4H2SO4 → K2SO4 + Cr(SO4)3 + 4H2O + 3[O]
K2Cr2O7 takes up electrons to get reduced and acts as an oxidising agent. The reaction of K2Cr2O7 with other iodide, iron (II) solution, and H2S are given below.
The following results have been obtained during the kinetic studies of the reaction: 2A + B → C + D
