Title: question about chromate and di chromate
Post by: Ahmed Hashem on November 20, 2013, 09:31:40 AM
what is the difference between K2Cr2O7 and KCrO4 ?
although both with the same oxidation state +6 but in some reaction we use chromate and other use di chromate

Do you mean K2CrO4?

This is probably a good place to start
