Answer:

K2Cr2O7

2(+1) + 2x + 7(-2) = 0

2 + 2x -14 = 0

2x = 12

x = 12/2

x = +6

Therefore oxidtaion no. of Cr in K2Cr2O7  is  (+6).

Hope it helps You.

Thank You!!!

Answer:

+ 6

Explanation:

Let O.N. of Cr in K₂Cr₂O₇ be 'y'

We know :

O.N. of K = + 2

O.N. of O = - 2

Here net charge on compound is zero.

= > ( 1 × 2 ) + ( y × 2 ) + ( - 2 × 7 ) = 0

= > 2 + 2 y - 14 = 0

= > 2 y + 2 - 14 = 0

= > 2 y - 12 = 0

= > 2 y = 12

= > y = 12 / 2

= > y = + 6 .

Therefore , O.N. of Cr in  K₂Cr₂O₇ is + 6 .
