    A)                 +4          

    B)                 +6

    C)                 +2          

    D)                 +3

    Correct Answer: D

    Solution :

               \[{{K}_{2}}C{{r}_{2}}{{O}_{7}}+6KI+7{{H}_{2}}S{{O}_{4}}\to 4{{K}_{2}}S{{O}_{4}}+C{{r}_{2}}{{(S{{O}_{4}})}_{3}}\]                    \[+7{{H}_{2}}O+3{{I}_{2}}\]                                 \[\overset{*}{\mathop{C}}\,{{r}_{2}}{{(S{{O}_{4}})}_{3}}\to 2\overset{+3}{\mathop{Cr}}\,+3SO_{4}^{2-}\]
