Chromium oxalate exrta pure

Chromium oxalate extra pure is a high-purity inorganic compound with the formula CrC2O4. It typically appears as light green to yellow-green crystalline powder or crystals. The compound has a molecular weight of about 140 g/mol and a density around 2.46 g/cm³. It is practically insoluble in cold water but soluble in hot water and dilute acids. The melting point is very high, approximately 1900°C, and it decomposes on heating, converting to chromium oxide.

Chromium oxalate is used as an analytical reagent, reducing agent, and in catalyst development. It is typically prepared by reacting chromium salts with oxalic acid. It is toxic and an irritant, requiring careful handling. The 'extra pure' designation indicates the product meets stringent purity standards with minimal impurities for sensitive laboratory or industrial use.
