Calcium hydroxide (like all metal hydroxides) are?
Strong alkali.
2 of 9
What else is Calcium hydroxide used for?
It is also used to neutralise soils and lakes much faster than powdered limestone.
3 of 9
What is Calcium hydroxide also called?
Limewater = Calcium hydroxide
4 of 9
Limewater reacts with Carbon dioxide to form?
Calcium Carbonate.
