Useful:

• Physical Properties: Reddish-brown hexagonal crystal; the pentadecahydrate is a dark green amorphous substance while the octadecahydrate is a violet cubic crystal; the densities are 3.10 g/cm3 (the anhydrous salt), 1.87 g/cm3 (pentadecahydrate), 1.709/cm3 (octadecahydrate); the anhydrous sulfate is insoluble in water and acids; the hydrate salts are soluble in water; the pentadecahydrate is insoluble in alcohol, but the octadecahydrate dissolves in alcohol.
• Uses: Chromium(III) sulfate is used as the electrolyte for obtaining pure chromium metal. It is used for chrome plating of other metals for protective and decorative purposes. Other important applications of this compound are as a mordant in the textile industry; in tanning leather; to dissolve gelatin; to impart green color to paints, varnishes, inks, and ceramic glazes; and as a catalyst. Chrome plating, chromium alloys, mordant, catalyst, green paints and varnishes, green ink, ceramics (glazes). The basic form (reduction of sodium dichromate) is used in tanning.
