The hydrogen chromate ion may be protonated, with the formation of molecular chromic acid, H 2 CrO 4, but the pK a for the equilibrium H 2 CrO 4 ⇌ HCrO − 4 + H + is not well characterized. Reported values vary between about −0.8 and 1.6. [4] The dichromate ion is a somewhat weaker base than the chromate ion: [5]
Potassium chromate is the inorganic compound with the formula K 2 CrO 4. This yellow solid is the potassium salt of the chromate anion. It is a common laboratory chemical, whereas sodium chromate is important industrially.
Sodium chromate is the inorganic compound with the formula Na 2 CrO 4. It exists as a yellow hygroscopic solid, which can form tetra-, hexa-, and deca hydrates . It is an intermediate in the extraction of chromium from its ores.
Silver chromate is an inorganic compound with formula Ag 2 CrO 4 which appears as distinctively coloured brown-red crystals. The compound is insoluble and its precipitation is indicative of the reaction between soluble chromate and silver precursor salts (commonly potassium / sodium chromate with silver nitrate ).
Lead(II) chromate is an inorganic compound with the chemical formula Pb Cr O 4. It is a bright yellow solid that is very poorly soluble in water. It is a bright yellow solid that is very poorly soluble in water.
Ammonium chromate is a salt with the formula (NH 4) 2 CrO 4. It forms yellow, monoclinic crystals; made from ammonium hydroxide and ammonium dichromate; used in photography as a sensitizer for gelatin coatings. It is often used in photography, textile printing, and fixing chromate dyes on wool. It is also used as an analytical reagent, catalyst ...
Calcium chromate is an inorganic compound with the formula CaCrO 4, i.e. the chromate salt of calcium. It is a bright yellow solid which is normally found in the dihydrate form CaCrO 4 ·2H 2 O. A very rare anhydrous mineral form exists in nature, which is known as chromatite .
Magnesium chromate is a chemical compound, with the formula MgCrO 4. It is a yellow, odorless, water-soluble salt with several important industrial uses. This chromate can be manufactured as a powder.
