In laboratory `K_(2)Cr_(2)O_(7)` is used mainly not `Na_(2)Cr_(2)O_(7).` Why?

Text Solution

Verified by Experts

`Na_(2)Cr_(2)O_(7)` is deliquescent enough and changes its concetration and can not be taken as primary standard solution whereas `K_(2)Cr_(2)O_(7)` has no water of crystallisation and not deliquescent.
