Here's why:
* Plumbic refers to the lead(IV) ion (Pb⁴⁺). This ion is highly unstable and readily reduces to the more stable lead(II) ion (Pb²⁺).
* Dichromate refers to the Cr₂O₇²⁻ anion.
Therefore, a compound with the formula Pb(Cr₂O₇)₂ would be extremely unstable and likely decompose into lead(II) dichromate (PbCr₂O₇) and other products.
Instead of plumbic dichromate, you might be thinking of lead(II) dichromate (PbCr₂O₇). This is a stable compound.
