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
It is readily oxidized by the atmosphere. CrO is basic, while CrO 3 is acidic, and Cr 2 O 3 is amphoteric. [3] CrO occurs in the spectra of luminous red novae, which occur when two stars collide. It is not known why red novae are the only objects that feature this molecule; one possible explanation is an as-yet-unknown nucleosynthesis process. [4]
This kind of chromic acid may be used as a cleaning mixture for glass. Chromic acid may also refer to the molecular species, H 2 CrO 4 of which the trioxide is the anhydride. Chromic acid features chromium in an oxidation state of +6 (and a valence of VI or 6). It is a strong and corrosive oxidizing agent and a moderate carcinogen.
The mechanism of this process likely depends on the acidity of the chromium reagent. Acidic reagents such as PCC may cause ionization and recombination of the chromate ester (path A), while the basic reagents (Collins) likely undergo direct allylic transposition via sigmatropic rearrangement (path B).
The film stars Paul Mescal (Lucius) as an enslaved man who finds purpose as a gladiator after his home is conquered by tyrant emperors.
