What happens when potassium dichromate is treated with ferrous sulphate solution in the presence of dilute sulphuric acid ?

Text Solution

Verified by Experts

Ferrous sulphate is oxidised to ferric sulphate. The reaction is as follows :
`2K_(2)CrO_(4)+5H_(2)SO_(4) to 2K_(2)SO_(4)+Cr_(2)(SO_(4))_(3)+5H_(2)O+3[O]`
`2FeSO_(4)+H_(2)SO_(4)+[O] to Fe_(2)(SO_(4))_(3)+H_(2)O`
An acidified solution of `K_(2)CrO_(4)` acts as an oxidising agent.
