$$2C{u^{2 + }} + 4{I^ - } \to 2Cu{I_2}$$
The $$Cu{I_2}$$ immediately decomposes to liberate $${I_2}$$ and insoluble copper$$\left( {\text{I}} \right)$$ iodide.
$$2Cu{I_2} \to 2CuI + {I_2}$$

When a substance $$A$$ reacts with water it produces a combustible gas $$B$$ and a solution of substance $$C$$ in water. When another substance $$D$$ reacts with this solution of $$C,$$ it also produces the same gas $$B$$ on warming but $$D$$ can also produce gas $$B$$ on reaction with dilute sulphuric acid at room temperature. $$A$$ imparts a deep golden yellow colour to a smokeless flame of Bunsen burner. $$A, B, C$$ and $$D,$$ respectively are
A
$$Na,{H_2},NaOH,Zn$$
B
$$K,{H_2},KOH,Al$$
C
$$Ca{H_2},Ca{\left( {OH} \right)_2},Sn$$
D
$$Ca{C_2},{C_2}{H_2},Ca{\left( {OH} \right)_2},Fe$$
$$Zn$$ and $$Hg$$ have $$d$$ - shells completely filled hence they do not exhibit variable valency.

In acidic medium, $${H_2}{O_2}$$ changes $$C{r_2}O_7^{2 - }$$ to $$Cr{O_5}$$ which has two $$(—O—O—)$$ bonds. Oxidation state of $$Cr$$ in $$Cr{O_5}$$ is
When $${H_2}{O_2}$$ is added to an acidified solution of a dichromate $$C{r_2}O_7^{2 - },$$ a deep blue coloured complex, chromic peroxide $$Cr{O_5}\left[ {{\text{or}}\,\,CrO{{\left( {{O_2}} \right)}_2}} \right]$$ is formed.
$$C{r_2}O_7^{2 - } + 2{H^ + } + 4{H_2}O \to $$ $$\underbrace {2CrO{{\left( {{O_2}} \right)}_2}}_{{\text{Chromic}}\,\,{\text{peroxide}}}$$ $$\left[ {{\text{blue}}\,\,{\text{coloured}}\,\,{\text{complex}}} \right]$$ $$ + 5{H_2}O$$
This deep blue coloured complex has the following structure
Oxidation state of $$Cr$$ in $$Cr{O_5}$$ is + 6 due to the presence of two peroxide linkages which can be calculated as
$$\eqalign{
& \mathop X\limits_{\left[ {{\text{For}}\,\,Cr} \right]} + \mathop {\left( { - 1} \right) \times 4}\limits_{\left[ {{\text{For}}\,\,0 - 0} \right]} + \mathop {1 \times \left( { - 2} \right)}\limits_{\left[ {{\text{For}}\,\,0} \right]} \cr
& x - 6 = 0 \cr
& \,\,\,\,\,\,\,\,\,x = + 6 \cr} $$
