Elemental composition
![Find the elemental composition for dichromate in terms of the atom and mass percents: atom percent = N_i/N_atoms × 100% mass percent = (N_im_i)/m × 100% Plan: • Write the chemical formula and gather atomic masses from the periodic table. • Determine values for N_i, m_i, N_atoms and m using these items. • Finally, compute the percents and check the results. Write the chemical formula: (Cr_2O_7)^2- Use the chemical formula, (Cr_2O_7)^2-, to count the number of atoms, N_i, for each element and find the total number of atoms, N_atoms: | number of atoms Cr (chromium) | 2 O (oxygen) | 7 N_atoms = 2 + 7 = 9 Divide each N_i by N_atoms to calculate atom fractions.

Elemental oxidation states
![The first step in finding the oxidation states (or oxidation numbers) in dichromate is to draw the structure diagram. Next set every oxidation number equal to the atom's formal charge: There are 8 chromium-oxygen bonds in dichromate. For each of these bonds, assign the bonding electrons to the most electronegative element. First examine the chromium-oxygen bonds: element | electronegativity (Pauling scale) | Cr | 1.66 | O | 3.44 | | | Since oxygen is more electronegative than chromium, the electrons in these bonds will go to oxygen. Decrease the oxidation number for oxygen in every highlighted bond (by 1 for single bonds, 2 for double bonds, and 3 for triple bonds), and increase the oxidation number for chromium accordingly: Now summarize the results: Answer: | | oxidation state | element | count -2 | O (oxygen) | 7 +6 | Cr (chromium) | 2](../image_source/cde7daa4b460425abcf54a0f679cda2f.png)
