Chromium(III) hydroxide is a gelatinous green inorganic compound with the chemical formula Cr(OH) 3. It is a polymer with an undefined structure and low solubility. It is amphoteric, dissolving in both strong alkalis and strong acids. [2] In alkali: Cr(OH) 3 + OH − → CrO − 2 + 2 H 2 O In acid: Cr(OH) 3 (OH 2) 3 + 3 H + → Cr(OH 2) 6 3+
The Pourbaix diagram for chromium in pure water, perchloric acid, or sodium hydroxide [1] [2] Chromium compounds are compounds containing the element chromium (Cr). Chromium is a member of group 6 of the transition metals. The +3 and +6 states occur most commonly within chromium compounds, followed by +2; charges of +1, +4 and +5 for chromium ...
Although insoluble in water, it reacts with acid to produce salts of hydrated chromium ions such as [Cr(H 2 O) 6] 3+. [11] 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. Unlike the classic ...
In acid solution the aquated Cr 3+ ion is produced. Cr 2 O 2− 7 + 14 H + + 6 e − → 2 Cr 3+ + 7 H 2 O ε 0 = 1.33 V. In alkaline solution chromium(III) hydroxide is produced. The redox potential shows that chromates are weaker oxidizing agent in alkaline solution than in acid solution. [6] CrO 2− 4 + 4 H 2 O + 3 e − → Cr(OH) 3 + 5 OH −
2 O + 3 e − → Cr(OH) 3 + 5 OH − (ε 0 = −0.13 V) Sodium chromate (Na 2 CrO 4) Chromium(VI) compounds in solution can be detected by adding an acidic hydrogen peroxide solution. The unstable dark blue chromium(VI) peroxide (CrO 5) is formed, which can be stabilized as an ether adduct CrO 5 ·OR 2. [21] Chromic acid has the hypothetical ...
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.
Chromium trioxide (Chromic acid) – CrO 3; Chromium(II) chloride (chromous chloride) – CrCl 2; Chromium(II) sulfate – CrSO 4; Chromium(III) chloride – CrCl 3; Chromium(III) nitrate – Cr(NO 3) 3; Chromium(III) oxide – Cr 2 O 3; Chromium(III) sulfate – Cr 2 (SO 4) 3; Chromium(III) telluride – Cr 2 Te 3; Chromium(IV) oxide – CrO 2 ...
The formula of this compound can be written more descriptively as [Cr(H 2 O) 6] 2 (SO 4) 3 ·6H 2 O. Six of the eighteen water molecules in this formula unit are water of crystallization. Hydrated chromium(III) sulfate, Cr 2 (SO 4) 3 ·15(H 2 O), (CAS #10031-37-5) is a green solid that also readily dissolves in water. It is obtained by heating ...
