Sodium chromate is a yellow solid chemical compound used as a corrosion inhibitor in the petroleum industry,[1] a dyeing auxiliary in the textile industry,[1] as a wood preservative[2]. and as a diagnostic pharmaceutical in determining red blood cell volume[3].
It is obtained from the reaction of sodium dichromate with sodium hydroxide. It is hygroscopic and can form tetra-, hexa-, and decahydrates. Sodium chromate, like other hexavalent chromium compounds, can be carcinogenic.[1]
The substance is a strong oxidant. It is soluble in water[4], producing a weakly basic solution[5].
