==Production and reactivity==
It is obtained from the reaction of ] with ]. It is hygroscopic and can form tetra-, hexa-, and deca]s. Sodium chromate, like other ] compounds, can be ].<ref name=ullmanns/>
It is obtained on a vast scale by roasting chromium ores in air in the presence of sodium carbonate:
:2Cr<sub>2</sub>O<sub>3</sub> + 4 Na<sub>2</sub>CO<sub>3</sub> + 3 O<sub>2</sub> → 4 Na<sub>2</sub>CrO<sub>4</sub> + 4 CO<sub>2</sub>
This process converts the chromium into a water-extractable form, leaving behind iron oxides. Typically ] is included in the mixture to improve oxygen access and to keep silicon and aluminium impurities in an insoluble form. The process temperature is typically around 1100 °C.<ref>{{cite book |url=https://monographs.iarc.fr/ENG/Monographs/vol49/mono49-6B.pdf |title=IARC Monographs 49 Ch. 2 |isbn=9789283212492 }}</ref> For lab and small scale preparations a mixture of chromite ore, sodium hydroxide and sodium nitrate reacting at lower temperatures may be used (even 350 C in the corresponding potassium chromate system).<ref>{{cite journal |title= A new method of potassium chromate production from chromite and KOH-KNO3-H2O binary submolten salt system|author=Zhi Sun, Yi Zhang, Shi-Li Zheng, Yang Zhang |doi=10.1002/aic.11871 |volume=55 |issue = 10|journal=AIChE Journal |pages=2646–2656|year = 2009}}</ref> Subsequent to its formation, the chromate salt is converted to ], the precursor to most chromium compounds and materials.<ref name=ullmanns/> The industrial route to ] involves reduction of sodium chromate with ].

==Uses==
