The Orange colour of Cr2O72– ion changes to yellow when treated with an
alkali. Why ?
The pair in which phosphorous atoms have a formal oxidation state of +3 is:
Pyrophosphorous and hypophosphoric acids
Orthophosphorous and hypophosphoric acids
Pyrophosphorous and pyrophosphoric acids
Pyrophosphorous and pyrophosphoric acids
Match the catalysis to the correct processes.

(A)TiCl3 | (i) Wacker Process |
(B) PdCl2 | (ii) Ziegler -Natta |
(C) CuCl2 | (iii) Contact process |
(D) V2O5 | (iv)Deacon's process |

(i) TiCl3 is used as Ziegler- Natta catalyst for the polymerisation of ethene.
(ii) PdCl2 is used in Wacker process, in which alkene changed into aldehyde via catalytic cyclic process initiated by PdCl2.
(iii) CuCl2 is used in Deacon's process (for Cl2)
(iv) V2O5 is used in contact process manufacturing sulphuric acid.
The equation which is balanced and represents the correct product(s) is
Li2O + 2KCl → 2LiCl + K2O
[COCl(NH3)5]+ + 5H+ → Co2+
[Mg(H2O)6]2+ + (EDTA)4- [Mg(EDTA)]2+ + 6H2O
[Mg(H2O)6]2+ + (EDTA)4- [Mg(EDTA)]2+ + 6H2O
