The reactions occur as

\mathrm{\mathrm{FeCr}_{2} \mathrm{O}_{4}+\mathrm{Na}_{2} \mathrm{CO}_{3}+\mathrm{O}_{2} \longrightarrow \mathrm{Na}_{2} \mathrm{CrO}_{4}+\mathrm{Fe}_{2} \mathrm{O}_{3}+\mathrm{CO}_{2}}

\mathrm{Na}_{2} \mathrm{CrO}_{4}+\mathrm{H}^+\longrightarrow \mathrm{Na}_{2} \mathrm{Cr}_{2} \mathrm{O}_{7}+\mathrm{H}_{2} \mathrm{O}

Thus \text { B\: is } \mathrm{Cr}_{2} \mathrm{O}_{7}{ }^{2-}

It contains 6 terminal oxygen atoms

Hence answer is 6
