It is the acidic anhydride of chromic acid, and is sometimes marketed under the same name. [6] This compound is a dark-purple solid under anhydrous conditions and bright orange when wet. The substance dissolves in water accompanied by hydrolysis. [clarification needed] Millions of kilograms are produced annually, mainly for electroplating. [7]
Although insoluble in water, it reacts with acid to produce salts of hydrated chromium ions such as [Cr(H 2 O) 6] 3+. [10] It is also attacked by concentrated alkali to yield salts of [Cr(OH) 6] 3−. When heated with finely divided carbon or aluminium, it is reduced to chromium metal: Cr 2 O 3 + 2 Al → 2 Cr + Al 2 O 3
When an acid is dissolved in water, the pH will be less than 7, while a base, or alkali, will have a pH greater than 7. A strong acid, such as hydrochloric acid, at concentration 1 mol dm −3 has a pH of 0, while a strong alkali like sodium hydroxide, at the same concentration, has a pH of 14. Since pH is a logarithmic scale, a difference of ...
The predominance diagram shows that the position of the equilibrium depends on both pH and the analytical concentration of chromium. [ notes 1 ] The chromate ion is the predominant species in alkaline solutions, but dichromate can become the predominant ion in acidic solutions.
Chromium(II) oxide (CrO) is an inorganic compound composed of chromium and oxygen. [1] It is a black powder that crystallises in the rock salt structure. [2] Hypophosphites may reduce chromium(III) oxide to chromium(II) oxide: H 3 PO 2 + 2 Cr 2 O 3 → 4 CrO + H 3 PO 4. It is readily oxidized by the atmosphere. CrO is basic, while CrO 3 is ...

An acidity function is a measure of the acidity of a medium or solvent system, [1] [2] usually expressed in terms of its ability to donate protons to (or accept protons from) a solute (Brønsted acidity). The pH scale is by far the most commonly used acidity function, and is ideal for dilute aqueous solutions.
The National Academy of Medicine recommends that adults get 1.1 to 1.6 grams of omega-3s per day to ensure nutritional adequacy. “Aim for two servings of fatty fish (8 to 12 ounces) each week ...
