K2CrO7 + H2C2O4 ------> K[Cr(C2O4)2(OH2)2] + H2O + CO2
the product which is formed is also known as trans isomer of potassium dioxalato diaquachroamte(III)

What is the chemical formlula of potassium sulphate and oxalic acid?
K2C2O4 in chemical industry, alwasy Potassium Oxalate exist in Potassium Oxalate Monohydrate(K2C2O4.H2O), CAS NO.6487-48-5.
Why is there colour change in the reaction between oxalic acid and potassium permanganate?
The dark purple color of permanganate fades because during the reaction permanganate is reduced to manganese cations and water. The other reactants and products are not strongly colored.
How do you separate a mixture of cis and trans potassium dioxalatodiaquochromate?
4 Cis- and trans potassium dioxalatodiaquachromato (III) Materials required:Oxalic acid, potassium dichromate a)Trans isomer of K{Cr(C2O4)2(H2O)2|3H2O Dissolve 12 g of oxalic acid monohydrate in a minimum amount of boiling water in a 250 ml beaker. Add in small portions a solution of 4 g of potassium oxalate in a minimum of hot water, covering the beaker while the violent reaction proceeds. Evaporate the solution to about one third of its original volume. Filter the crystals and wash with cold water and ethanol. A high yield cannot be expected since only a part of the product is isolated. Note that in solution there is an equilibrium between the cis- and thetrans isomer, but the low solubility of the trans isomer results in its initial deposition. Excessive spontaneous evaporation should be avoided since otherwise the product may be contaminated with the cis isomer. b) Cis isomer of K{CR(C2O4))(H2O)2}2H2O Prepare an intimate mixture of finely ground potassium dichromate(4 g) and oxalic acid dihydrate (12 g) and heap the powder in a 15 cm diameter evaporating dish. Place one drop of water in a small depression in the mixture and cover the dish with a watch glass. After a short induction period the reaction commences and soon becomes vigorous with the evolution of steam and carbon dioxide. A solution of the product cannot be formed, and hence an equilibrium mixture of cis- and trans-isomers is not formed. The outcome of this reaction is a purple viscous liquid to which is added 20 ml of ethanol. The mixture is stirred until the reaction product solidifies. If solidification is slow, decant the liquid and repeat with a second portion of ethanol until the product is entirely crystalline. Filter at the pump. ** Purity test of the isomers:Place a few crystals of the complex on a filter paper and add a few drops of diluted aqueous ammonia. The cis-isomer rapidly forms a deep green solution which spreads over the filter paper, and no solid remains. The trans-isomer forms a light brown solid which remains undissolved. These changes are due to the formation of cis- and trans- dioxalatohydroxoaquachromium(III) ions.
Could you prepare oxalic acid by adding HCl to a solution of sodium oxalate cooling it to room temp and filtering the resulting mixture?
No we cannot prepare Oxalic acid by the given method. Solubility of Sodium Oxalate is less in comparison to solubility of Oxalic acid. So whatever oxalic acid is formed will remain in the solution and cannot be precipitated out in the form of solid
Is oxalic acid synthetic or natural?
yes
Cis potassium di oxalato di aqua cromate?
it is a complex coordinate made by the reaction of potassium dichromate with oxalic acid. its chemical formula is K[Cr (C2O4)2 (H2O)2].
What happens when concentrated sulphuric acid is heated with oxalic acid?
product is formed
What happens when oxalic acid is heated with concentrated sulphuric acid?
product is formed
Balanced equation for oxalic acid and potassium permanganate?
2co +o2 ---> 2co2
Why heat oxalic acid before titrate with potassium permanganate?
The oxalic acid is heated to icrease the rate of reaction which is very slow at room temperature
What happens when oxalic acid goes into the mouth?
Oxalic acid is found in such plants such as spinach and other plants like rhubarb. In high concentrations oxalic acid is poisonous. Oxalic acid is a organic compound that is colorless.
Is oxalic acid dibasic?
Yes, oxalic acid is a compound just like all other acids.
How is oxalic acid vs NaOH titration different from oxalic acid vs potassium permegnate titration?
The former is a acid base neutralisation reaction whereas the latter is a redox reaction.
What is the reaction between potassium permanganate and sulphuric acid and oxalic acid?
Potassium Permanganate (KMnO4) reacts with Sulphuric acid (H2SO4) to produce Manganese Heptoxide (MnO7), water (H20) and Potassium Hydrogen Sulphate (KHSO4)2. The reactive species produced is Manganese Heptoxide (which is a very powerful oxidiser). The Manganese Heptoxide will oxidise the Oxalic acid (COOH)2 to Carbon dioxide (CO2).
Is there a different between potassium oxalate and potassium acid oxalate?
sorrel salt: potassium hydrogen oxalate or potassium hydrogen oxalate, KHC2O4 (sal acetosella, salt of lemon). Here only one 'H' is replaced with 'K' in oxalic acid to get HOOC-COOK. Potassium oxalate is KOOC-COOK.
What happens when you eat rhubarb leaves?
Rhubarb leaves contain oxalic acid. So too does the stem itself. Tomatoes also contain oxalic acid, especially the leaves. Oxalic acid is a poison. Oxalic acid is also found in potatoes and in peppers as well as in peas. Oxalic acid becomes concentrated in tomato paste. In the tomato, red tomato's have less oxalic acid than do green tomato's.
What happens when we mix the KMnO4 H2SO4 solutions and oxalic acid?
There is a redox reaction between oxalic acid being oxidised by acidic permanganate ions (MnO4-). Products are H2O(l) and CO2(g) and Mn2+ ions.
