\mathrm{K}_2 \mathrm{Cr}_2 \mathrm{O}_7+\mathrm{SO}_2+\mathrm{H}_2 \mathrm{SO}_4 \rightarrow \mathrm{K}_2 \mathrm{SO}_4+\mathrm{Cr}_2\left(\mathrm{SO}_4\right)_3+\mathrm{H}_2 \mathrm{O}

Oxidation number of Cr in \mathrm{K}_2 \mathrm{Cr}_2 \mathrm{O}_7 is +6 and in \mathrm{Cr}_2\left(\mathrm{SO}_4\right)_3 is +3. Oxidation number of S in \mathrm{SO_{2}} is +4 and in \left(\mathrm{SO}_4\right)^{2-} ion is +6.
