Solution

The compound used in the manufacturing of K2Cr2O7 (Potassium dichromate) is Na2CrO4 (Sodium chromate). Here are the steps:

  1. Sodium chromate (Na2CrO4) is treated with sulfuric acid (H2SO4) to produce sodium dichromate (Na2Cr2O7).

    Na2CrO4 + H2SO4 -> Na2Cr2O7 + H2O

  2. Sodium dichromate (Na2Cr2O7) is then treated with potassium chloride (KCl) to produce potassium dichromate (K2Cr2O7).

    Na2Cr2O7 + 2KCl -> K2Cr2O7 + 2NaCl

So, Sodium chromate (Na2CrO4) is the compound used in the manufacturing of Potassium dichromate (K2Cr2O7).
