(i) The unbalanced chemical equation for the reaction to form Ag2[Cr2O7] is
Cr3+ + S2O82- +H2O + AgNO3 → Ag2[Cr2O7] + SO42- + H+ + NO3-
Balance the equation and determine which atoms were oxidised and which were reduced in the reaction.
(ii) The unbalanced chemical equation for the reaction to form K3Cr(O2)4 is
K2CrO4 + H2O2 + KOH → K3Cr(O2)4 + H2O
Balance the equation. Show which atoms were oxidised and which atoms were reduced.
