water 1 liter, 30 - 40 C, 30 - 100A/dm2, duration 10 - 20 min, 6 - 9v, distance object anode 30 - 100mm. A variant of this procedure is the so-called chromium oxide procedure (250 - 300 gr of chromium anhydride, 1 - 5 gr of potassium ferrocyanide, 20 - 100 A/dm2, max. 25 C) [35]
Chromium(III) oxide is amphoteric. 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 ...
Chromium(III) nitrate describes several inorganic compounds consisting of chromium, nitrate and varying amounts of water. Most common is the dark violet hygroscopic solid. An anhydrous green form is also known. Chromium(III) nitrate compounds are of a limited commercial importance, finding some applications in the dyeing industry. [2]
The Pourbaix diagram for chromium in pure water, perchloric acid, or sodium hydroxide [1] [2] 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 ...
Thermochromism is the property of substances to change color due to a change in temperature. A mood ring is an example of this property used in a consumer product although thermochromism also has more practical uses, such as baby bottles, which change to a different color when cool enough to drink, or kettles which change color when water is at ...
The passivation layer of oxide markedly slows further oxidation and corrosion in room-temperature air for aluminium, beryllium, chromium, zinc, titanium, and silicon (a metalloid). The inert surface layer formed by reaction with air has a thickness of about 1.5 nm for silicon, 1–10 nm for beryllium , and 1 nm initially for titanium , growing ...
Chromium aventurine, in which aventurescence is achieved by growth of large parallel chromium(III) oxide plates during cooling, is made from glass with added chromium oxide in amount above its solubility limit in glass. Cadmium together with sulphur forms cadmium sulfide and results in deep yellow color, often used in glazes. However, cadmium ...
Predicting the color of a compound can be extremely complicated. Some examples include: Cobalt chloride is pink or blue depending on the state of hydration (blue dry, pink with water) so it is used as a moisture indicator in silica gel. Zinc oxide is white, but at higher temperatures becomes yellow, returning to white as it cools.
