Chromic Acid （H2CrO4）is hygroscopic and a strong oxidizer easily dissolves in water. It is widely used in industries like metal coating, wood preservation and manufacturing of magnetic tape and organic chemicals.
Chromium trioxide（CrO3） is the anhydride of chromic acid. It is a red solid piece at room temperature. It can precipitate by adding sulfuric acid in chromate or dichromate solution. Therefore it is also known as “chromic acid”. In this report, we choose the Chromium trioxide with purity ≥99% to calculate the quantity of Chromic Acid.
