Calcium Chromite, CaCrO4 or CaO.Cr2O3
Calcium Chromite, CaCr2O4 or CaO.Cr2O3, may be obtained as an olive-green crystalline powder by heating together potassium dichromate and calcium chloride, and extracting with concentrated hydrochloric acid. On precipitating a solution of chrome alum and a calcium salt with potassium hydroxide in excess, a green insoluble compound, corresponding in composition with the formula 2CaO.Cr2O3.xH2O, is formed. It is less stable than the former compound, being readily oxidised to chromate by heating in air. By heating chromium sesquioxide and calcium oxide together in the electric furnace, hard green crystalline plates of density 4.8 and composition 4CaO.Cr2O3 are formed. They are decomposed by water.
