doesn't sodium burn yellow and chromate burn purple or something like that?
i don't know but i just read the question again, and no, the precipitant isn't yellow, it is with the CrO4 though. dichromate is red. or is it the other way around?
when mr. F did that thing with all the different colored test tubes wasn't chromate purple and dichromate blue or am i thinking of something else?
the chromate was yellow or something lite and the dichromate was dark

The world is like an atom. The not-quite-as-intelligent people are the nucleus all packed together sharing a common...everything. We, we are the electrons. Granted we're not as smart as these engineers and what-not so we're most likely in the first orbital, but we're the electrons of this giant atom. We all have differing intelligences and ideas and we are separated from the nucleus which makes us better because no one really cares about how a nucleus acts. It's the electrons that make chemistry, except for nuclear chem, of course, which I am a big fan of.
