The correct Answer is:
To solve the given problem step by step, we will analyze the reactions provided and identify the compounds (A) and (B). ### Step 1: Identify the first reaction The first reaction given is: \[ \text{FeCr}_2\text{O}_4 + \text{NaOH} + \text{air} \rightarrow (A) + \text{Fe}_2\text{O}_3 \] In this reaction, iron chromite (\(\text{FeCr}_2\text{O}_4\)) reacts with sodium hydroxide (\(\text{NaOH}\)) and oxygen (from air) to produce sodium chromate (\(\text{Na}_2\text{CrO}_4\)) and iron(III) oxide (\(\text{Fe}_2\text{O}_3\)). The balanced equation for this reaction is: \[ \text{FeCr}_2\text{O}_4 + 4 \text{NaOH} + \text{O}_2 \rightarrow 2 \text{Na}_2\text{CrO}_4 + \text{Fe}_2\text{O}_3 + 2 \text{H}_2\text{O} \] Thus, compound (A) is: \[ (A) = \text{Na}_2\text{CrO}_4 \] ### Step 2: Identify the second reaction The second reaction is: \[ (A) + (B) \rightarrow \text{Na}_2\text{Cr}_2\text{O}_7 \] From the previous step, we know that (A) is \(\text{Na}_2\text{CrO}_4\). To convert sodium chromate to sodium dichromate (\(\text{Na}_2\text{Cr}_2\text{O}_7\)), we need to react it with sulfuric acid (\(\text{H}_2\text{SO}_4\)). The balanced equation for this reaction is: \[ 2 \text{Na}_2\text{CrO}_4 + \text{H}_2\text{SO}_4 \rightarrow \text{Na}_2\text{Cr}_2\text{O}_7 + \text{Na}_2\text{SO}_4 + \text{H}_2\text{O} \] Thus, compound (B) is: \[ (B) = \text{H}_2\text{SO}_4 \] ### Step 3: Identify the third reaction The third reaction is: \[ \text{Na}_2\text{Cr}_2\text{O}_7 + X \overset{\Delta}{\rightarrow} \text{Cr}_2\text{O}_3 \] Sodium dichromate can be reduced to chromium(III) oxide (\(\text{Cr}_2\text{O}_3\)) using a reducing agent. A common reducing agent for this reaction can be carbon (C) or zinc (Zn). The balanced equation for this reaction can be: \[ \text{Na}_2\text{Cr}_2\text{O}_7 + 3 \text{C} \rightarrow \text{Cr}_2\text{O}_3 + 2 \text{Na}_2\text{CO}_3 \] ### Step 4: Identify the fourth reaction The fourth reaction is: \[ \text{Cr}_2\text{O}_3 + Y \overset{\Delta}{\rightarrow} \text{Cr} \] To convert chromium(III) oxide to chromium metal, we can use aluminum (Al) as a reducing agent. This is a thermite reaction. The balanced equation for this reaction is: \[ 2 \text{Cr}_2\text{O}_3 + 3 \text{Al} \rightarrow 4 \text{Cr} + 3 \text{Al}_2\text{O}_3 \] ### Final Answer Thus, the compounds (A) and (B) are: - \( (A) = \text{Na}_2\text{CrO}_4 \) - \( (B) = \text{H}_2\text{SO}_4 \)
