TL;DR Summary
Are potassium bichromate and dichromate the same chemical?
Hello All

I have a reference in a 1930s journal to potassium bichromate. Is this the same as potassium dichromate K2Cr2O7 ? ie dichromate is the modern terminaology to use.

Searching on the www almost always finds the dichromate when I search for the bichromate, but maybe this is just the search engine finding a best match?

best regards ... Stef

As far as I am aware bichromate and dichromate are synonyms.
