$In dichromate..........?$ $"In dichromate..........?"$

For $(^{-} O -) {(O =)}_{2} C r - O - C r {(= O)}_{2} (- O^{-})$ $(""^(-)O-)(O=)_2Cr-O-Cr(=O)_2(-O^(-))$

Explanation:

Well, let's count them up.

Well each chromium centre is tetrahedral to a first approx., so there are $2 \times 6$ $2xx6$ , and one $∠ C r - O - C r$ $/_Cr-O-Cr$ , so this gives 13 in total. Make a model, and see if you agree with me. (I did not make a model because I am lazy!). I have treated all $∠ O - C r - O$ $/_O-Cr-O$ and $∠ C r - O - C r$ $/_Cr-O-Cr$ as tetrahedral to a first approx.
