Balancing this redox RXN?

OpenStudy (amtran_bus):

For a particular redox reaction Cr is oxidized to CrO42– and Cu2 is reduced to Cu . Complete and balance the equation for this reaction in basic solution. Phases are optional. Where am I wrong?

@aaronq @AccessDenied can you help me?

OpenStudy (aaronq):

The number of electrons transferred from Cr to \(CrO_4^{2-}\) is 6, but you only accounted for 3 in \(3Cu^{2+}\rightarrow 3Cu^+\). Maybe that's the problem?

OpenStudy (amtran_bus):

YES! Thank you!

OpenStudy (aaronq):

sweet! no problem
