When dil. sulphuric acid reacts with aqueous solution of potassium chromate, the colour changes from yellow to orange. This shows that
Options
- Achromate ions reduced
- Bchromate ions are oxidised
- Cmonocentric complex is converted into dicentric complex
- Doxygen gets removed from chromate ions
Correct answer
C. monocentric complex is converted into dicentric complex
Step-by-step solution
On acidification of potassium chromate solution, yellow colour changes to orange colour due to formation of dichromate which suggests that monocentric complex is converted into dicentric complex.
