Detailed Solution

The oxidation state of chromium in Cr2O7 2- is +6 and in Cr3+ is +3, the change in oxidation state is +3 there are 2 chromium atoms and hence 6 electrons are required for reduction

The oxidation state of carbon in C2O42- is +3 and in CO2 is +4, the change in oxidation state is +1 there are 2 carbon atoms and hence 2 electrons are involved in oxidation

The oxidation state of chlorine in ClO-is +1 and in ClO3-is +5, the change in oxidation state is +4 and hence 4 electrons are involved in oxidation

The oxidation state of manganese in MnO4-is +7 and in MnO4 2- is +6, the change in

oxidation state is +1 and hence 1 electrons are involved in oxidation

Hence the correct option is (A).
