Question

Potassium peroxochromate $K_{3} C r O_{8}$ is a red-brown paramagnetic solid prepared from the following reaction.
$C r O_{4}^{2 -} + H_{2} O_{2} + O H^{-} \to [C r O_{8}]^{3 -} + H_{2} O + O_{2}$
If oxidation state of $C r$ in product is $X$ , number of peroxide bonded $O$ in product is $Y$ and number of electrons in d orbital of $C r$ is $Z$ then what is value of $X + Y + Z$ ?

Solution

Since all the oxygens present are peroxide bonded, the
oxidation state of $C r$ is, $(X)$ = $5$ .
Total number of peroxide bonded $O$ are, $(Y)$ = $8$ .
Number of electrons in $d$ orbitals of $C r$ is, $(Z)$ = $1$ .
So $X + Y + Z = 14$
