In the neutralization of `Na_(2)S_(2)O_(3)` using `K_(2)Cr_(2)O_(7)` by idometry, the equivalent weight of `K_(2)Cr_(2)O_(7)` isA. (molecular weight)/2B. (molecular weight)/6C. (molecular weight)/3D. same as molecular weight

Answer» Correct Answer - B
The following reaction occur between `S_(2)O_(3)^(2-)` and `Cr_(2)O_(7)^(2-)`
`26H^(+) + 3S_(2)O_(3)^(2-) + 4Cr_(2)O_(7)^(2-) rarr 6SO_(4)^(2-) + 8Cr^(3+) +13 H_(2)O`
Change in oxidation number of `Cr_(2)O_(7)^(2-)` per formula unit is 6 (it is always fixed for `Cr_(2)O_(7)^(2-)`).
Hence, equivalent weight of `K_(2)Cr_(2)O_(7) = ("Molecular weight")/(6)`
