Hi, the picture with the chart is the battery referred to. Thank you so much.

34. Which of the following is the correct equation for the reaction that occurs in this battery?
A. Zn(s) + Cr20,2-(aq) + 14 H1+(aq) → Zn²*(aq) + 2 Cr3*(aq) + 7 H2O(t)
B. 3 Zn(s) +
Cr20,2-(aq) + 14 H1+(aq) → 3 Zn2+(aq) + 2 Cr3+(aq) + 7 H2O(t)
C. 3 Zn2+(aq) + 2 Cr3+ (aq) + 7 H2O(t) → 3 Zn(s) + Cr2077¯(aq) + 14 H1+(aq)
D. 3 Zn(s) + 2 Cr3+(aq) + 7 H20(e) → 3 Zn²+(aq) + Cr2O,2-(aq) + 14 H1+(aq)
