Answer»

Right answer is (c) K2CR2O7

To explain: POTASSIUM DICHROMATE (K2Cr2O7) is especially useful in the visible range but also useful in UV. Potassium dichromate itself is stable and available in high purity. In dilute perchloric acid SOLUTION, it has a linear response with good temperature stability and also stable as solution.
