Cr3+

Description:
The chemical substance Cr3+, also known as chromium(III) ion, is a cation derived from chromium, a transition metal. It is characterized by its +3 oxidation state, which is stable and commonly encountered in various chemical compounds. Chromium(III) ions are typically green in color and are known for their relatively low toxicity compared to other chromium oxidation states, such as Cr6+, which is highly toxic and carcinogenic. Cr3+ is soluble in water and forms various complexes, often exhibiting coordination with ligands such as water, chloride, and sulfate. It plays a significant role in biological systems, particularly in glucose metabolism and insulin function. In industrial applications, chromium(III) compounds are used in pigments, leather tanning, and as catalysts. The CAS number 16065-83-1 specifically refers to chromium(III) chloride, a common salt of Cr3+ that is often used in laboratory and industrial settings. Overall, Cr3+ is an essential ion with diverse applications and a crucial role in both environmental and biological contexts.
