    Correct statements from the following are (A) Potassium dichromate is an oxidising agent and it oxidises FeSO4{FeSO}_{4} to Fe2(SO4)3{Fe}_{2}\left( {SO}_{4} \right)_{3} in acidic medium. (B) Sodium dichromate can be used as primary standard in volumetric estimation. (C) CrO42−{CrO}_{4}^{2 -} and Cr2O72−{Cr}_{2}O_{7}^{2 -} are interconvertible in aqueous solution by varying the pH of the solution. (D) Cr−O−CrCr - O - Cr bond angle in Cr2O72−{Cr}_{2}O_{7}^{2 -} is 126∘126^{\circ}. Choose the correct answer from the options given below :
