Option (C) is correct.
The chromate ion (yellow colour) in acidic medium changes to dichromate ion
C

(orange - red colour). In alkaline medium, reverse happens.
In solution,the dichromate ions convert to chromate ions by the action of a base. Thus chromate ion and dichromate ion exists in equilibrium.
