Sodium and potassium dichromates are strong oxidising agents; the sodium salt has a greater solubility in water and is extensively used as an oxidising agent in organic chemistry Potassium dichromate is used as a primary standard in volumetric analysis In acidic solution, its oxidising action can be represented as follows: Cr2O7 2– + 14H + + 6e – ® 2Cr 3+ + 7H2O (E o = 1 33V) Thus, acidified potassium dichromate will oxidise iodides to iodine, sulphides to sulphur, tin(II) to tin(IV) and iron(II) salts to iron(III)
