  2. Chromium - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Chromium

    Chromium(III) hydroxide (Cr(OH) 3) is amphoteric, dissolving in acidic solutions to form [Cr(H 2 O) 6] 3+, and in basic solutions to form [Cr(OH) 6] 3−. It is dehydrated by heating to form the green chromium(III) oxide (Cr 2 O 3), a stable oxide with a crystal structure identical to that of corundum. [21]

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Chromium_compounds

    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 are rare, but do nevertheless occasionally exist.

  5. Chromium(II) oxide - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Chromium(II)_oxide

    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 ...

  6. Potassium dichromate - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Potassium_dichromate

    Potassium dichromate, K 2 Cr 2 O 7, is a common inorganic chemical reagent, most commonly used as an oxidizing agent in various laboratory and industrial applications. As with all hexavalent chromium compounds, it is acutely and chronically harmful to health. It is a crystalline ionic solid with a very bright, red-orange color.

    10, and tetrachromates, Cr 4 O 2− 13. [2] All polyoxyanions of chromium(VI) have structures made up of tetrahedral CrO 4 units sharing corners. [3] 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

    The average adult has a blood volume of roughly 5 litres (11 US pt) or 1.3 gallons, [10] which is composed of plasma and formed elements. The formed elements are the two types of blood cell or corpuscle – the red blood cells, (erythrocytes) and white blood cells (leukocytes), and the cell fragments called platelets [12] that are involved in ...

    Chromium trioxide is the anhydride of molecular chromic acid. It is a Lewis acid and can react with a Lewis base, such as pyridine in a non-aqueous medium such as dichloromethane (Collins reagent). 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.
