The hydrogen chromate ion, HCrO 4 −, is a weak acid: HCrO − 4 ⇌ CrO 2− 4 + H +; pK a ≈ 5.9. It is also in equilibrium with the dichromate ion: 2 HCrO − 4 ⇌ Cr 2 O 2− 7 + H 2 O. This equilibrium does not involve a change in hydrogen ion concentration, which would predict that the equilibrium is independent of pH.
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. [6] Chromic acid has the hypothetical formula H 2 CrO 4. It is a vaguely described chemical ...
The structure of the pyridine complex has been determined crystallographically. [2] Adducts with other N-heterocycles have also been characterized similarly. [3] Aqueous chromium(VI) oxide peroxide decomposes in a few seconds, turning green as chromium(III) compounds are formed. [4] 2 CrO(O 2) 2 + 7 H 2 O 2 + 6 H + → 2 Cr 3+ + 10 H 2 O + 7 O 2
Structure of tetrachromic acid H 2 Cr 4 O 13 ·2H 2 O, one component of concentrated "chromic acid". The H-atom positions are calculated, not observed. Color code: red = O, white = H, blue = Cr. [7] Higher chromic acids with the formula H 2 Cr n O (3n+1) are probable components of concentrated solutions of chromic acid.
Strontium chromate is approximately 30 times more soluble in water at 100 °C than at room temperature. Therefore, the yellow strontium chromate can be suspended in a hot solution of a soluble sulfate to digest until fully converted to the much less soluble and white strontium sulfate, leaving the chromate or dichromate in solution.
3 has the corundum structure, consisting of a hexagonal close packed array of oxide anions with 2 ⁄ 3 of the octahedral holes occupied by chromium. Similar to corundum, Cr 2 O 3 is a hard, brittle material (Mohs hardness 8 to 8.5). [4] It is antiferromagnetic up to 307 K, the Néel temperature.
The structure of nickel chromate is the same as for chromium vanadate, CrVO 4. Crystals have an orthorhombic structure with unit cell sizes a = 5.482 Å, b = 8.237 Å, c = 6.147 Å. The cell volume is 277.6 Å 3 with four formula per unit cell. [5] [7] Nickel chromate is dark in colour, unlike most other chromates which are yellow. [3]
Lead(II) chromate can be produced by treating sodium chromate with lead salts such as lead(II) nitrate or by combining lead(II) oxide with chromic acid.. Related lead sulfochromate pigments are produced by the replacement of some chromate by sulfate, resulting in a mixed lead-chromate-sulfate compositions Pb(CrO 4) 1−x (SO 4) x.
