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.
Chromate anions (CrO 2− 4) and dichromate (Cr 2 O 7 2−) anions are the principal ions at this oxidation state. They exist at an equilibrium, determined by pH: 2 [CrO 4] 2− + 2 H + ⇌ [Cr 2 O 7] 2− + H 2 O. Chromium(VI) oxyhalides are known also and include chromyl fluoride (CrO 2 F 2) and chromyl chloride (CrO
Chromate or chromat, and their derived terms, may refer to ... Trichromate, an ion; Tetrachromate, an ion; Chromate conversion coating, a method for passivating metals;
It is used in qualitative inorganic analysis, e.g. as a colorimetric test for silver ion. It is also used as an indicator in precipitation titrations with silver nitrate and sodium chloride (they can be used as standard as well as titrant for each other) as potassium chromate turns red in the presence of excess of silver ions.
The phosphite ion, PO 3− 3, is a strong base, and so always carries at least one proton. In this case the proton is attached directly to the phosphorus atom with the structure HPO 2− 3. In forming this ion, the phosphite ion is behaving as a Lewis base and donating a pair of electrons to the Lewis acid, H +. Predominance diagram for chromate
The reactivity of the chromate anion with silver is lower than with halides (e.g. chlorides) so that in a mixture of both ions, only silver chloride precipitate will form: [9] AgNO 3(aq) + Cl − (aq) + CrO 2− 4(aq) → AgCl (s) + CrO 2− 4(aq) + NO − 3(aq) Only when no chloride (or any halogen) is left will silver chromate form and ...
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]
While chromium metal and Cr(III) ions are considered non-toxic, chromate and its derivatives, often called "hexavalent chromium", is toxic and carcinogenic. According to the European Chemicals Agency (ECHA), chromium trioxide that is used in industrial electroplating processes is a "substance of very high concern" (SVHC).
