Chromate and dichromate salts of heavy metals, lanthanides and alkaline earth metals are only very slightly soluble in water and are thus used as pigments. The lead-containing pigment chrome yellow was used for a very long time before environmental regulations discouraged its use. [ 7 ]
The Cornforth reagent (pyridinium dichromate or PDC) is a pyridinium salt of dichromate with the chemical formula [C 5 H 5 NH] 2 [Cr 2 O 7].This compound is named after the Australian-British chemist Sir John Warcup Cornforth (b. 1917) who introduced it in 1962.
Sodium dichromate is the inorganic compound with the formula Na 2 Cr 2 O 7.However, the salt is usually handled as its dihydrate Na 2 Cr 2 O 7 ·2H 2 O.Virtually all chromium ore is processed via conversion to sodium dichromate and virtually all compounds and materials based on chromium are prepared from this salt.

The following chart shows the solubility of various ionic compounds in water at 1 atm pressure and room temperature (approx. 25 °C, 298.15 K). "Soluble" means the ionic compound doesn't precipitate, while "slightly soluble" and "insoluble" mean that a solid will precipitate; "slightly soluble" compounds like calcium sulfate may require heat to precipitate.
This reaction is rapid and stoichiometric, with the addition of one mole of thiol releasing one mole of TNB. The TNB 2− is quantified in a spectrophotometer by measuring the absorbance of visible light at 412 nm, using an extinction coefficient of 14,150 M −1 cm −1 for dilute buffer solutions, [4] [5] and a coefficient of 13,700 M −1 cm −1 for high salt concentrations, such as 6 M ...
Silver dichromate is a chemical compound with the formula Ag 2 Cr 2 O 7. It is insoluble in water and decomposes when treated with hot water. Its anion has a charge of -2.
A dianion is an anion with a net charge of −2. While there exist many stable molecular dianions, such as BeF 4 2− and MgF 4 2− , [ 1 ] thus far no stable atomic dianion has been found: Electron shielding and other quantum mechanical effects tend to make the addition of another electron to an atomic anion unstable.
The use of dichromate cleaning solutions is now phased out due to the high toxicity and environmental concerns. Modern cleaning solutions are highly effective and chromium free. [97] Potassium dichromate is a chemical reagent, used as a titrating agent. [98] Chromates are added to drilling muds to prevent corrosion of steel under wet conditions ...
