How is the character for \"heavy\" pronounced in potassium dichromate?

Thread Content

I was in the laboratory of a factory and needed potassium dichromate reagent; they said they didn’t have it, but I found it in the medicine cabinet and they said that was the one I needed. They say that the chemical name is specific, and it is potassium dichromate. The name you mentioned is incorrect, so we can’t find it. My face turned red right away. Then someone who studied chemical engineering came over and gave me some lessons as well. This reagent is potassium dichromate; you must remember that. Later, I visited several factories, and they were all called that. Later, the city’s environmental protection agency organized training sessions on how to measure COD in wastewater, and the instructor also pronounced it as \"zhong\" chromium acid potassium. I have a question now: how exactly is this ‘potassium dichromate’ pronounced?

Of course it’s CHONG – there are two, meaning repetition: lol

Why are so many people reading zhong, including some who study chemistry?

Equivalent to chromium-molybdenum steel. . . The older generation calls it Luomu Gang

This reminds me of what the teacher taught us in material mechanics class about quenching: the Southern method is called \"cui huo\", while the Northern method is called \"zan huo\"; old craftsmen refer to it as \"zhan huo\". Chlorine; some people also call it lu gas. For “dumplings”, it was originally called hun tun, but now everyone calls it hun dun
