Sodium dichromate is an inorganic compound, commonly known as sodium alum, orange crystal, which is often used in the form of dihydrate: sodium dichromate dihydrate. Its chemical properties are similar to that of potassium dichromate. The solubility of sodium dichromate in water is about 20 times that of potassium dichromate (49G / L, 0 ° C), and its relative molecular weight is smaller. However, its application is not as wide as that of potassium dichromate.
Chromium in sodium dichromate is hexavalent, harmful and carcinogenic. Anhydrous sodium dichromate is highly toxic.
