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]
It can be prepared by treating chromium metal with fluorine at 400 °C and 200 bar pressure. The peroxochromate(V) is another example of the +5 oxidation state. Potassium peroxochromate (K 3 [Cr(O 2) 4]) is made by reacting potassium chromate with hydrogen peroxide at low temperatures. This red brown compound is stable at room temperature but ...
Oxidation with chromium(VI) complexes involves the conversion of alcohols to carbonyl compounds or more highly oxidized products through the action of molecular chromium(VI) oxides and salts. [1] The principal reagents are Collins reagent, PDC, and PCC. These reagents represent improvements over inorganic chromium(VI) reagents such as Jones ...
As pH rises the chromate ion becomes ever more predominant, until it is the only species in solutions with pH > 6.75. At pH < pK 1 the hydrogen chromate ion, HCrO − 4 is predominant in dilute solution. The dichromate ion, Cr 2 O 2− 7, is predominant in more concentrated solutions, except at high pH.

Because the oxidation is signaled by a color change from orange to brownish green (indicating chromium being reduced from oxidation state +6 to +3), chromic acid is commonly used as a lab reagent in high school or undergraduate college chemistry as a qualitative analytical test for the presence of primary or secondary alcohols, or aldehydes.

Structure of CrO(O 2) 2 (pyridine).Hydrogen atoms bonded to carbon atoms are omitted. Color code: Cr = gray, C= black, H = white, O= red, N = blue. Chromium(VI) oxide peroxide is formed by the addition of acidified hydrogen peroxide solutions to solutions of metal chromates or dichromates, such as sodium chromate or potassium dichromate.
Pyridinium chlorochromate in a vial. Pyridinium chlorochromate (PCC) is a yellow-orange salt with the formula [C 5 H 5 NH] + [CrO 3 Cl] −.It is a reagent in organic synthesis used primarily for oxidation of alcohols to form carbonyls.
