The scientist should make a new hypothesis and do a new experiment! That is what I say!

Answer:
.
Explanation:
Consider the oxidation state on each of the element:
Left-hand side:
- O: -2 (as in most compounds);
- Cr: ;
- Fe: +2 (from the charge of the ion);
Right-hand side:
Change in oxidation state:
- Each Cr atom: decreases by 3 (reduction).
- Each Fe atom: increases by 1 (oxidation).
Changes in oxidation states shall balance each other in redox reactions. Thus, for each Cr atom on the left-hand side, there need to be three Fe atoms.
Assume that the coefficient of the most complex species is 1. There will be two Cr atoms and hence six Fe atoms on the left-hand side. Additionally, there are going to be seven O atoms.
Atoms are conserved in chemical reactions. As a result, the right-hand side of this equation will contain
- two Cr atoms,
- six Fe atoms, and
- seven O atoms.
O atoms seldom appear among the products in acidic environments; they rapidly combine with ions to produce water . Seven O atoms will make seven water molecules. That's fourteen H atoms and hence fourteen ions on the product side of this equation. Hence the balanced equation. Double check to ensure that the charges on the ions also balance.

Answer:
- <u><em>You should expect that the ionic bond in LiBr is stronger than the bond in KBr.</em></u>
<u><em /></u>
Explanation:
The<em> ionic bonds</em> are formed by the electrostatic attraction between the ions, cations and anions.
In KBr the cation is K⁺ and the anion is Br⁻.
In LiBr the cation is Li⁺ and the anion is Br⁻.
You must expect that the bond strength depends mainly on the charges present on each ion and the distance between them.
Nevertheless, the effect of the distance between the radius dominate the trendency of the bond strength, which makes that the ionic strength trend be related to the ionic radius trend.
Lithium is a smaller ion than Potassium (both are in the same group and Lithium is above Potassium).
Thus, you should expect that the Li ion is closer to the Br ion than what the K ion is to the Br ion and expect that the bond between a Li ion and the Br ion be stronger than the bond between the K ion and the Br ion.
