    In the dichromate dianion            [IIT 1999]

    A)                 \[4\,Cr-O\]bonds are equivalent

    B)                 \[6\,Cr-O\]bonds are equivalent

    C)                 All \[Cr-O\] bonds are equivalent

    D)                 All \[Cr-O\] bonds are non-equivalent

    Correct Answer: B

    Solution :

               Dichromate dianion has following structure         \[{{\left[ O\leftarrow \underset{O}{\overset{O}{\mathop{\underset{\downarrow }{\overset{\uparrow }{\mathop{Cr}}}\,}}}\,-O-\underset{O}{\overset{O}{\mathop{\underset{\downarrow }{\overset{\uparrow }{\mathop{Cr}}}\,}}}\,\to O \right]}^{2-}}\]                 6, \[Cr-O\] bonds are equivalent.
