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 used as a laboratory reagent. Colleges, universities and analytical labs use it to prepare chromium salt solutions and teach chromium(III) chemistry, and supervised school labs use it for demonstrations of transition-metal colours. Science Lab Supplies supplies it out of Ambala, India to institutions, tender contractors and distributors.
Specifications
The anhydrous salt has the formula Cr2(SO4)3, a molecular weight near 392.2 g/mol and CAS 10101-53-8. Hydrated and basic chromium sulphate forms also exist, appearing 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 most often 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.
- Teaching chromium(III) salt chemistry and the colours of transition-metal ions in solution.
- Analytical and research procedures that specify a chromium sulphate solution.
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. Waste containers for chromium residues are the laboratory's own responsibility.
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). Send questions via the contact page, compile a product list in the enquiry cart, or consult the lab tender page for tenders.
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.
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?
Science Lab Supplies provides it from Ambala, India on direct quotations to schools, colleges and distributors, with the batch Safety Data Sheet.
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.
Related Chromium and Metal Sulphate Reagents
Chromium chemistry is taught by contrasting its +3 and +6 oxidation states, and chromium sulphate is also compared with other transition-metal sulphates. These four reagents from the same range support both comparisons and can share one quotation.
- Chromic Acid Lab Reagent — restricted chromium(VI) reagent.
- Potassium Dichromate — chromium(VI) oxidising reagent for redox work.
- Nickel Sulphate — inorganic nickel salt.
- Manganese Sulphate — manganese(II) sulphate, MnSO4.
