The number of terminal oxygen atoms present in the product B obtained from the following reaction is ______.

FeCr2O4+Na2CO3+O2→A+Fe2O3+CO2\mathrm{FeCr_2O_4+Na_2CO_3+O_2\rightarrow A+Fe_2O_3+CO_2}
A+H+→B+H2O+Na+\mathrm{A+H^+\rightarrow B+H_2O+Na^+}

Answer and worked solution

Official answer: 6

A is Na2CrO4\mathrm{Na_2CrO_4}; acid gives B Na2Cr2O7\mathrm{Na_2Cr_2O_7}. The dichromate ion has one bridging and six terminal oxygens.
