उत्तर

Potassium dichromate acts as a strong oxidizing agent. It is used as a primary standard in volumetric analysis. The oxidation action of dichromate ion in an acidic medium can be represented as follows –

\[\ce{Cr2O^{2-}_7 + 14H^+ + 6e^- -> 2Cr^{3+} + 7H2O}\] (E = 1.33 V)

When ferrous salts (Fe2+) are treated with acidified K2Cr2O7, they are oxidised to ferric (Fe3+) salts.

\[\ce{Cr2O^{2-}_7 + 14H^+ + 6Fe^{2+} -> 2Cr^{3+} + 7H2O + 6Fe^{3+}}\]
