What is the oxidation number of CrO5?

The IUPAC name of CrO5 is Chromium(VI) peroxide or chromium oxide peroxide. CrO5 contains 5 oxygen atoms. one of the oxygen atom link with chromium as oxide while four (4) oxygen atoms participate in the formation of two peroxide linkage.

Hence, the oxidation number of Cr=+6.

How many Peroxy links are there in CrO5?

 The IUPAC name of CrO5 is Chromium(VI) peroxide or chromium oxide peroxide. CrO5 contains 5 oxygen atoms. one of the oxygen atom link with chromium as oxide while four (4) oxygen atoms participate in the formation of peroxide linkage so the number of peroxide linkages is 2.


Number of peroxy linkage in a compound having one central atom =1/2[calculated oxidation state-maximum oxidation state

What are the explanation of Different Bond length and Bond Angle In P4O6 and P4O10 :

 (1) According to Bent Rule Loan Pair prefer to Stay to in those atomic orbital have more (S) character.

(2) In case of P4O6 molecules atomic orbital containing loan pair have more (S) character and less (P) character hence shorter bond length while remaining orbitals have less (S) character and more (P) character hence longer bond length (X1) than (X2) in P4O10 .
(3) We know that On increasing % s character in hybrid orbital, the bond length decreases while bond angle increases.
(3) In Case of P4O6   (O-P-O) bond is Smaller due to higher P character in atomic orbital than orbital containing (O-P-O) in P4O10. (have more S character )
