Potassium K

Probably the most common compound of +3 chromium is potassium chrome alum, KCr(SOi)r 12H20. We know that the twelve water molecules are distributed equally, six around Cr+a and six around K+. Potassium chrome alum is just one example of the general class of solids called alums which have a 4-1 ion, a +3 ion, two sulfates, and twelve molecules of water. In the dyeing industry chrome alum is used for fixing dyes to fabrics.

Figure 3.20 UPS spectra of CO chemisorbed on iron show that the 5a orbital has shifted down to higher binding energy as a result of chemisorption. CO largely desorbs from clean iron upon heating to 390 K. Potassium enhances the bond between CO and the metal and promotes the dissociation of CO at higher temperatures (adapted from Broden et al. [51 ]).
