Question 38

To demonstrate volcanic eruption in science exhibitions ammonium dichromate is used ($$(\text{NH}_4)_2\text{Cr}_2\text{O}_7$$). Show balanced decomposition reaction of $$(\text{NH}_4)_2\text{Cr}_2\text{O}_7$$ ________


Correct Answer: 0

Solution

PLACEHOLDER ANSWER - the answer is a chemical equation. On heating, ammonium dichromate decomposes as $$(\text{NH}_4)_2\text{Cr}_2\text{O}_7 \xrightarrow{\Delta} \text{N}_2 + \text{Cr}_2\text{O}_3 + 4\text{H}_2\text{O}$$. The green $$\text{Cr}_2\text{O}_3$$ is thrown out like volcanic ash.
