The correct Answer is:
To solve the problem, we need to analyze the two reactions involving the dichromate ion (Cr₂O₇²⁻) and the chromate ion (CrO₄²⁻) in terms of their oxidation states and the conditions (pH) under which these reactions occur. ### Step-by-Step Solution: 1. **Identify the Reactions:** - The first reaction is the conversion of dichromate ion (Cr₂O₇²⁻) to chromate ion (CrO₄²⁻). - The second reaction is the conversion of chromate ion (CrO₄²⁻) back to dichromate ion (Cr₂O₇²⁻). 2. **Determine the Oxidation States:** - In Cr₂O₇²⁻, the oxidation state of chromium (Cr) can be calculated as follows: \[ 2x + 7(-2) = -2 \implies 2x - 14 = -2 \implies 2x = 12 \implies x = +6 \] - Thus, the oxidation state of Cr in Cr₂O₇²⁻ is +6. - In CrO₄²⁻, the oxidation state of chromium is: \[ x + 4(-2) = -2 \implies x - 8 = -2 \implies x = +6 \] - The oxidation state remains +6 for Cr in CrO₄²⁻ as well. 3. **Analyze the First Reaction (Dichromate to Chromate):** - The conversion from Cr₂O₇²⁻ to CrO₄²⁻ occurs under basic conditions (high pH). - This means that the concentration of H⁺ ions (denoted as x) must be low, specifically: \[ [H^+] < 10^{-7} \text{ M} \quad \text{(pH > 7)} \] 4. **Analyze the Second Reaction (Chromate to Dichromate):** - The conversion from CrO₄²⁻ to Cr₂O₇²⁻ occurs under acidic conditions (low pH). - This means that the concentration of H⁺ ions (denoted as y) must be high, specifically: \[ [H^+] > 10^{-7} \text{ M} \quad \text{(pH < 7)} \] 5. **Conclusion:** - From the analysis, we conclude: - For the first reaction (dichromate to chromate), x must be less than \(10^{-7}\) M. - For the second reaction (chromate to dichromate), y must be greater than \(10^{-7}\) M. 6. **Choose the Correct Values:** - The suitable option for x and y that satisfies these conditions is: - \(x = 10^{-8}\) (which is less than \(10^{-7}\)) - \(y = 10^{-4}\) (which is greater than \(10^{-7}\)) ### Final Answer: The values of \(H^+\) would be respectively: \(10^{-8}\) and \(10^{-4}\).
