Potassium dichromate is a potassium salt that is the dipotassium salt of dichromic acid. It has a role as an oxidising agent, an allergen and a sensitiser.

Product Dose:

Primary and secondary alcohols are oxidized by K2Cr2O7 to carboxylic acids and ketones respectively. The oxidation is physically observed by the change in color upon reduction of Cr6+ (yellow) to Cr3+ (blue). This demonstration also illustrates the chemistry behind the breathalyzer test.
