First, it is best to know the chemical formula of pyridine which is C5H5N. To determine the number of carbon atoms present in pyridine, multiply 7.05 mol C5H5N with 5 mol C/ 1 mol C5H5N which then results to 35.35 mol of carbon. Then, multiply the answer to Avogadro's number which is 6.022x10^23 atoms. It is then calculated that the number of carbon atoms in 7.05 moles of pyridine is 2.12x10^25 atoms.

You have to calculate the oxidation estates of the atoms in each compound.
I will start with K2Cr2O7 because I believe that Cr is the best candidate to reduce its oxidation number in 3 units.
In K2Cr2O7:
- K has oxidation state of 1+, then K2 has a charge of 2* (1+) = 2+.
- O has oxidation state of 2*, then O7 has a charge of 7* (2-) = 14-.
That makes that Cr2 has charge of 14 - 2 = +12, so each Cr has +12/2 = +6 oxidation state.
In Cr2O3:
- O has oxidation state of 2-, then O3 has charge 3 * (2-) = - 6
- Then, Cr2 has charge 6+, and each Cr has charge 6+ / 2 = 3+.
So, we have seen that Cr reduced its oxidation state in 3 units, from 6+ to 3+.
Answer: Cr has a change in oxidation number of - 3.
