Chromium(III) Hydroxide Precipitation

CrCl3 + 3NaOH → Cr(OH)3↓ + 3NaCl

概述

Chromium(III) chloride reacts with sodium hydroxide to form a green gelatinous precipitate of chromium(III) hydroxide (Ksp = 6.3 × 10⁻³¹). Cr(OH)₃ is amphoteric, dissolving in both excess acid and excess NaOH. In excess NaOH, it forms the green chromite ion [Cr(OH)₄]⁻.
