CAS 10294-40-3: Barium chromate
Description:Barium chromate, with the chemical formula BaCrO4 and CAS number 10294-40-3, is an inorganic compound characterized by its bright yellow color and crystalline structure. It is a salt formed from barium and chromate ions, and it is commonly used as a pigment in paints, plastics, and ceramics due to its vibrant hue and opacity. Barium chromate is insoluble in water, which contributes to its stability in various applications. However, it is important to note that it is considered toxic and a potential carcinogen due to the presence of hexavalent chromium, which poses environmental and health risks. The compound can be produced through the reaction of barium salts with chromic acid or chromate salts. In addition to its use in pigments, barium chromate has applications in the field of analytical chemistry as a reagent. Proper handling and disposal are essential to mitigate its hazardous effects, and safety precautions should be observed when working with this compound.
