<title>GATE ES 2023 | Question: 33</title>
<link>https://es.gateoverflow.in/254/gate-es-2023-question-33</link>
<description>&lt;p&gt;Read the following statements&lt;/p&gt;

&lt;ol&gt;
	&lt;li&gt;Trivalent chromium has relatively low aqueous solubility, and low mobility in the soil environment. By contrast, hexavalent chromium has a higher aqueous solubility and greater mobility in the soil environment.&lt;/li&gt;
	&lt;li&gt;The chemical reaction between trivalent chromium and zero-valent iron will result in transformed version called hexavalent chromium.&lt;/li&gt;
	&lt;li&gt;Hexavalent chromium is a known carcinogen.&amp;nbsp;&lt;/li&gt;
	&lt;li&gt;Trivalent chromium has relatively higher human toxicity as compared to hexavalent chromium.&lt;/li&gt;
&lt;/ol&gt;

&lt;p&gt;The correct choice is&lt;/p&gt;

&lt;ol start=&quot;1&quot; style=&quot;list-style-type:upper-alpha&quot;&gt;
	&lt;li&gt;IV is correct; I and III are incorrect&lt;/li&gt;
	&lt;li&gt;II is correct; I and IV are incorrect&lt;/li&gt;
	&lt;li&gt;I and III are correct; II and IV are incorrect&lt;/li&gt;
	&lt;li&gt;I, II and IV are correct; III is incorrect&lt;/li&gt;
&lt;/ol&gt;
