(d). Assertion (A) is false, Reason (R) is true.
Q. Assertion (A): to a solution of potassium chromate, if a strong acid is added, it changes its colour from yellow to orange.
Reason (R): The colour change is due to the change in oxidation state of potassium chromate.

Text Solution

Verified by Experts

The correct Answer is:
C

Assertion (A) is true, (R) is false. There is no change in the oxidation state of `Cr` which is `+6` in both cases.
`2overset(2+)(Cr)O_4^(2-)+SO_4^(2-)+2H^(o+)tooverset(6+)(C)r_2O_7^(2-)+SO_4^(2-)+SO_4^(2-)+H_2O`
The colour of a compound is due to either d-d transition or due to charge transfer transitions. In this case both `CrO_4^(2-)` and `Cr_2O_7^(2-)` are coloured due to charge transfer transition.
