Chromium Sulphate Lab
Product Code : SCL-LC-12188
Chromium Sulphate Lab (SKU SCL-LC-12188) is chromium(III) sulphate, also called chromic sulphate, Cr2(SO4)3, an inorganic chromium salt offered as a laboratory reagent. It can be used in colleges, universities and analytical labs to prepare chromium salt solutions and teach chromium(III) chemistry, and in supervised school labs to demonstrate transition-metal colours. Institutions, tender contractors and distributors receive their quotation and consignment from Science Lab Supplies in Ambala, India.
Specifications
The chromium(III) salt's formula, forms and waste rules appear row by row in the table. In short, anhydrous chromic sulphate is Cr2(SO4)3 of about 392.2 g/mol, CAS 10101-53-8; hydrated and basic forms also exist and look green, violet or otherwise coloured, so the batch label and quotation confirm the exact form, grade and pack size.

Applications and Experiments for Chromium Sulphate
Chromium sulphate provides chromium in its stable +3 oxidation state, the form met in inorganic analysis. Laboratories weigh it out to make chromium(III) solutions for qualitative tests, colour studies and methods that name it, always collecting chromium residues for controlled disposal.
- B.Sc. qualitative inorganic analysis: identifying Cr3+ ions in salt mixtures run in a pack of glass Test Tubes.
- Teaching chromium(III) salt chemistry and the colours of transition-metal ions in solution, with the solid kept in a stoppered Weighing Bottle while it is weighed.
- Analytical and research procedures that specify a chromium sulphate solution, handled in disposable Gloves - Protective.
Standard Scope of Supply
Each supply unit is a closed container of chromium sulphate labelled with batch, grade and form details, shipped with the current Safety Data Sheet in tamper-sealed outer packaging with export documents. The laboratory provides its own waste containers for chromium residues.
Shelf life depends on the chemical, its grade and storage conditions; ask us for the expiry date of the batch you are quoted.
Packing, MOQ and Lead Time
Quotations are issued for one container or for larger laboratory quantities and always state the packing, delivery time and price for the amount you specify. Chromium(VI) reagents and other metal sulphates can be listed with it, keeping one chemistry lab equipment in India order together.
As a registered exporter with an Importer-Exporter Code, Science Lab Supplies is able to ship to buyers in Nigeria, Kenya, Ghana, Ethiopia, Tanzania and Uganda. Science Lab Supplies is registered for GST (GSTIN 06ADEPJ0574F2ZU). A chromium-salt quotation can be requested on the contact page, grouped with other sulphates in the enquiry cart, or set up for a tender through the lab tender page.
Frequently Asked Questions
Is chromium sulphate the same as chromic acid?
No. Chromium sulphate contains chromium(III), while chromic acid is a chromium(VI) compound with much more severe hazards. Order the one your method specifies, as the two are not interchangeable.
How should chromium sulphate residues be handled?
Collect them as chromium-containing chemical waste under your laboratory rules. Never pour them into drains, and avoid dust, eye contact and skin contact while working.
Who supplies the Chromium Sulphate Lab?
Schools, colleges and distributors are quoted directly by Science Lab Supplies of Ambala, India, and the batch Safety Data Sheet and a form-specific label accompany every container.
Can it be used in a school laboratory?
Yes, in authorised school or college labs under trained supervision, following the Safety Data Sheet and the institution's chemical-safety procedure, with residues kept out of the drains.
