Correct answer
D. B, D, E only
Step-by-step solution
A. CrO 4 2 - : the geometry of chromate ions is tetrahedral. B. 2 Na 2 CrO 4 + 2 H + → Na 2 Cr 2 O 7 + 2 Na + + H 2 O Dichromates are usually prepared from chromates and this is obtained by the combination of chromite ore with sodium/potassium carbonate in the presence of air. C. Green manganate is paramagnetic with 1 unpaired electron. D. Disproportionation reaction of managanate in acidic or neutral medium is one of the preparation method for the permanaganate. 3 MnO 4 2 - + 4 H + → 2 MnO 4 - + MnO 2 + 2 H 2 O Da
