✓ Correct answer: d)

A, C and D Only

Explanation

A primary standard is a highly pure, stable compound with a known and exact composition that can be accurately weighed and dissolved to prepare a solution of known concentration.

  • NaOH is hygroscopic, so it cannot be used as a primary standard.

  • \({\mathrm{FeSO}}_{4}\cdot 6{\mathrm{H}}_{2}\mathrm{O}\) is unstable and easily oxidised, so it cannot be used.

  • \({\mathrm{Na}}_{2}{\mathrm{Cr}}_{2}{\mathrm{O}}_{7}\) is hygroscopic, so it cannot be used.
