- CALCIUM CARBONATE, CaCO3
- CALCIUM OXIDE, CaO
- CALCIUM HYDROXIDE, Ca(OH)2
- CALCIUM HYDROXIDE SOLUTION
- CALCIUM CARBONATE, CaCO3
- CALCIUM OXIDE, CaO
- CALCIUM HYDROXIDE, Ca(OH)2
- CALCIUM HYDROXIDE SOLUTION
- This is known as limewater - it is used as a test for the presence of CO2. The limewater turns cloudy because it reacts with the carbon dioxide to form insoluble calcium carbonate
- Water is added to the calcium oxide to form calcium hydroxide
- Calcium hydroxide is an alkali and therefore it is used by farmers to neutralise acidic soils and in industry to neutralise acidic gases
- CALCIUM HYDROXIDE SOLUTION
- The calcium carbonate is thermally decomposed. CO2 is given off as a product
- CALCIUM HYDROXIDE, Ca(OH)2
- CALCIUM OXIDE, CaO
