As nouns the difference between chromate and cadmium

is that chromate is any salt of chromic acid; in solution the yellow chromate anion (CrO42-) is in equilibrium with the orange dichromate anion (Cr2O72-), the relative amount of each ion depending on the pH; they are both very powerful oxidizing agents while cadmium is a metallic chemical element (symbol Cd) with an atomic number of 48.
