Question:medium

What are the products formed when ammonium dichromate is thermally decomposed?

Show Hint

The thermal decomposition of ammonium dichromate is an example of an internal redox reaction, where the oxidizing agent (\(Cr_2O_7^{2-}\)) and the reducing agent (\(NH_4^+\)) are part of the same ionic compound. Remember the products: N is oxidized to \(N_2\), Cr is reduced to \(Cr_2O_3\), and the rest forms water.

NO\(_2\), Cr\(_2\)O\(_3\), H\(_2\)
N\(_2\)O, Cr\(_2\)O\(_3\), H\(_2\)O
N\(_2\), CrO\(_3\), H\(_2\)O
N\(_2\), Cr\(_2\)O\(_3\), H\(_2\)O
