  2. Chromium trioxide - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Chromium_trioxide

    Chromium trioxide is highly toxic, corrosive, and carcinogenic. [12] It is the main example of hexavalent chromium, an environmental hazard. [13] The related chromium(III) derivatives are not particularly dangerous; thus, reductants are used to destroy chromium(VI) samples.

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Chromium_compounds

    A large number of chromium(III) compounds are known, such as chromium(III) nitrate, chromium(III) acetate, and chromium(III) oxide. [8] Chromium(III) can be obtained by dissolving elemental chromium in acids like hydrochloric acid or sulfuric acid, but it can also be formed through the reduction of chromium(VI) by cytochrome c7. [9] The Cr 3+

  5. Hexavalent chromium - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Hexavalent_chromium

    Hexavalent chromium (chromium(VI), Cr(VI), chromium 6) is any chemical compound that contains the element chromium in the +6 oxidation state (thus hexavalent). [1] It has been identified as carcinogenic, which is of concern since approximately 136,000 tonnes (150,000 tons) of hexavalent chromium were produced in 1985. [ 2 ]

  6. Chromium(VI) oxide peroxide - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Chromium(VI)_oxide_peroxide

    Chromium(VI) oxide peroxide is the name given to a collection of chromium coordination complexes. They have the formula CrO(O 2) 2 L where L is a ligand. These species are dark blue and often labile. They all feature oxo ligand and two peroxo ligands, with the remaining coordination sites occupied by water, hydroxide, ether, or other Lewis ...

  7. Chromate and dichromate - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Chromate_and_dichromate

    The primary chromium ore is the mixed metal oxide chromite, FeCr 2 O 4, found as brittle metallic black crystals or granules. Chromite ore is heated with a mixture of calcium carbonate and sodium carbonate in the presence of air. The chromium is oxidized to the hexavalent form, while the iron forms iron(III) oxide, Fe 2 O 3:

  8. Chromium(III) oxide - Wikipedia

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

    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 oxide may refer to: Chromium(II) oxide, CrO; Chromium(III) oxide, Cr 2 O 3; Chromium dioxide (chromium(IV) oxide), CrO 2, which includes the hypothetical compound chromium(II) chromate; Chromium trioxide (chromium(VI) oxide), CrO 3; Chromium(VI) oxide peroxide, CrO 5; Mixed valence species, such as Cr 8 O 21
