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+. [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
The measurement of pH can become difficult at extremely acidic or alkaline conditions, such as below pH 2.5 (ca. 0.003 mol/dm 3 acid) or above pH 10.5 (above ca. 0.0003 mol/dm 3 alkaline). This is due to the breakdown of the Nernst equation in such conditions when using a glass electrode.
Structure of CrO(O 2) 2 (pyridine).Hydrogen atoms bonded to carbon atoms are omitted. Color code: Cr = gray, C= black, H = white, O= red, N = blue. Chromium(VI) oxide peroxide is formed by the addition of acidified hydrogen peroxide solutions to solutions of metal chromates or dichromates, such as sodium chromate or potassium dichromate.
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 ...
In chemistry, acid value (AV, acid number, neutralization number or acidity) is a number used to quantify the acidity of a given chemical substance.It is the quantity of base (usually potassium hydroxide (KOH)), expressed as milligrams of KOH required to neutralize the acidic constituents in 1 gram of a sample.
In this case H 0 and H − are equivalent to pH values determined by the buffer equation or Henderson-Hasselbalch equation. However, an H 0 value of −21 (a 25% solution of SbF 5 in HSO 3 F ) [ 5 ] does not imply a hydrogen ion concentration of 10 21 mol/dm 3 : such a "solution" would have a density more than a hundred times greater than a ...
Chromium(III) chloride (also called chromic chloride) is an inorganic chemical compound with the chemical formula Cr Cl 3.It forms several hydrates with the formula CrCl 3 ·nH 2 O, among which are hydrates where n can be 5 (chromium(III) chloride pentahydrate CrCl 3 ·5H 2 O) or 6 (chromium(III) chloride hexahydrate CrCl 3 ·6H 2 O).
