The Orange colour of Cr₂O₇^2– ion changes to yellow when treated with an
alkali. Why ?

Chemistry of actinoids is complicated as compared to lanthanoids. Give two reasons.

Complete and balance the following chemical equations :

$F{e}^{2+} + Mn{O}_4^{-} + H^{+} \stackrel{ }{\to }$

Complete and balance the following chemical equation:

$Mn{O}_4^{-} + H_{2}O + I^{-} \stackrel{ }{\to }$

Give reason:

E° value for a Mn³⁺/Mn²⁺ couple is much more positive than that for Fe3⁺/Fe²⁺.

Give reason:

Iron has a higher enthalpy of atomization than that of copper.
