What is the main advantage of the hypochlorus acid compared with chromic acid?

Hypochlorous acid is a stronger oxidant than Chromic acid


What is the chromic acid oxidation mechanism for converting aldehydes?

The chromic acid oxidation mechanism for converting aldehydes involves the aldehyde reacting with chromic acid to form a carboxylic acid. This reaction typically occurs in the presence of sulfuric acid and water. The chromic acid is reduced to chromium(III) during the process.


How chromic acid is prepared from potassium dichromate and sulphuric acid?

Chromic acid is the acid in chromic acid. The chemical formula is H2CrO3 (Not correct)Added & Corrected:Often the species are assigned the formulas H2CrO4 (dihydrogen chromate) and H2Cr2O7 (dihydrogen dichromate).The anhydride of these "chromic acids" is chromium trioxide, also called chromium(VI) oxide (2CrO3=Cr2O6).Regardless of its exact formula, chromic acid features chromium in an oxidation state of +6 (or VI), the highest known.


How you will prepare chromic acid solution?

Take 20g of Potassium Dichromate powder and make a paste using small volume of water. To this add 300ml of concentrated Sulphuric acid with lot of care. Your Chromic Acid is ready. Use only Glass appartus for preparation and storage of chromic acid. Use rubber gloves while handling chromate and acid.


Is H2CrO4 weak acid?

Chromic acid, H2CrO4, is a strong acid. It is a powerful oxidizing agent and will readily donate protons in solution.


What is the color of chromic acid after oxidation?

Chromic acid turns from orange-red to green after oxidation.


Will diamond react with chromic acid?

No, it does not


Preparation of chromic acid from chromium trioxide?

A general rule of thumb in chemistry is that metal oxides in water will form acids: CrO3+H2O -> H2CrO4. In fact, Chromium Trioxide is often sold as Chromic anhydride, that is, the anhydride of Chromic acid (take away water from Chromic acid, and you have...)


Why does chromic acid react with aldehydes?

Chromic acid (H2CrO4) reacts with aldehydes to form carboxylic acids through oxidation. This reaction involves the transfer of oxygen to the aldehyde carbon, converting it to a carboxylic acid functional group.
