An inorganic compound \(\mathrm{W}\) undergoes the following reactions:
\(
\begin{gathered}
W+\dfrac{\mathrm{Na}_2 \mathrm{CO}_3}{\mathrm{O}_2 / \text { heat }} \rightarrow X+\dfrac{\mathrm{H}^{+}}{} \rightarrow Y_{(s)} \\
Y(a q)+\mathrm{KCl}(\mathrm{aq}) \rightarrow Z_{(S)}
\end{gathered}
\)
Z appears in the form of orange crystals and is used as an oxidising agent in acid medium. Identify the compound W.
- A \(\mathrm{K}_2 \mathrm{CrO}_4\)
- B \(\mathrm{Cu}(\mathrm{CrO}_2)_2\)
- C \(\mathrm{Na}_2 \mathrm{CrO}_4\)
- D \(\mathrm{FeCr}_2 \mathrm{O}_4\)
Answer & Solution
Correct Answer
(D) \(\mathrm{FeCr}_2 \mathrm{O}_4\)
Step-by-step Solution
Detailed explanation
The reaction sequence describes the industrial preparation of potassium dichromate from chromite ore. The compound W is chromite ore, \(\mathrm{FeCr}_{2}\mathrm{O}_{4}\). In the first step, chromite ore reacts with sodium carbonate in the presence of air (oxygen) to form sodium…
