  2. 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+. [11] 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 ...

  3. Chromium compounds - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Chromium_compounds

    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 ...

  4. Chromium cycle - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Chromium_cycle

    Soluble hexavalent chromium is the most common type of chromium in oceans, where over 70% of dissolved chromium in the ocean is found in oxyanions such as chromate (CrO 2− 4). Soluble trivalent chromium is also found in the oceans where complexation with organic ligands occurs. Chromium is estimated to have a residence time of

  5. Chromium oxide - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Chromium_oxide

    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

  6. Solar transition region - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Solar_transition_region

    This makes radiative transfer of energy within the transition region very complicated. Below, gas pressure and fluid dynamics usually dominate the motion and shape of structures; above, magnetic forces dominate the motion and shape of structures, giving rise to different simplifications of magnetohydrodynamics.

  7. Solar energy conversion - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Solar_energy_conversion

    This energy can be used for water heating, space heating, space cooling and process heat generation. Many steam generation systems have adapted to using sunlight as a primary source for heating feed water, a development that has greatly increased the overall efficiency of boilers and many other types of waste heat recovery systems.

  8. 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 ...

  9. Chromium - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Chromium

    Chromium(IV) oxide is used to manufacture magnetic tape used in high-performance audio tape and standard audio cassettes. [93] Chromium(III) oxide (Cr 2 O 3) is a metal polish known as green rouge. [94] [95] Chromic acid is a powerful oxidizing agent and is a useful compound for cleaning laboratory glassware of any trace of organic compounds. [96]
