Structure, Characterization and magnetic properties of Cr-doped CeFeO3 (CeFe1-xCrxO3) nanoparticles have been synthesized by co-precipitation method. The consequential samples are characterized by structural, optical and magnetic properties. The average crystallite size (Dc) is decreasing with a dopant and establish to be altering between 7nm-32.6nm. The morphology is analyzed using scanning electron microscope and the obtained results credited that Eg values are growing with dopant varying between 2.05 eV- 2.61 eV.The metal oxide (M-O) stretching vibrations and few functional groups are detected from infrared spectra. (VSM) Vibrating sample magnetometer analysed the weak ferromagnetic behavior is pragmatic from hysteresis loop behavior. As well, the large hysteresis loop behavior induces no saturation up to 15kOe in nanoparticles. According to the obtained grades, CeFeO3 nanopowder can be raised as a visible light-driven photocatalyst,
