2. Test for Reducing Agents

b) Using oxidising agent Potassium dichromate(VI)

If reducing agents are present, acidified potassium dichromate(VI) is oxidised to chromium(II) ions.

2. Add acidified potassium manganate(VII) to unknown colourless solution T.
Observations

Orange K2Cr2O7 solution turned green.
