The valency of potassium dichromate is -2 and the oxidation state of chromium is +6.
- K2Cr2O7 is potassium dichromate.
- (Cr2O7)2- have a valence of 2 because of the -2 charge.
- Valency is the number of electrons present in the valence shell of an element.
- The oxidation state of chromium in K2Cr2O7 is calculated by 2+2x-14 = 0, x= +6.
- K2Cr2O7 is a strong oxidising agent and is used in the laboratory for quantitative analysis.
- K2Cr2O7 is orange coloured solid with a molecular weight of 294 grams.
- It is used as a primary standard in titration reactions.
