calcium hydroxide is used to neuralise the acidity in soil
to get calcium hydroxide: Quicklime (calcium oxide) + water = slaked lime (calcium hydroxide) the calcium oxide has a chemical reaction with water to get the calcium hydroxide hope this helps :)
Calcium is the metal present in calcium hydroxide..
Calcium hydroxide is not en element it is a compound.
Calcium Hydroxide
Calcium hydroxide is an ionic compound. It is made up of a calcium ion (Ca2+) and two hydroxide ions (OH-), which are held together by ionic bonds resulting from the transfer of electrons from calcium to hydroxide.
Calcium hydroxide is not en element it is a compound.
A compound is a mixture of elements. As the name implies, CH (or calcium hydroxide) is made up of calcium and hydrogen. Calcium and Hydrogen are elements. Thus, calcium hydroxide is a compound.
The chemical name is calcium hydrogen carbonate.
Can I answer with a question? How is calcium hydroxide formed? What is "lime water"
The chemical formula of Calcium hydroxide is Ca(OH)2
Calcium Hydroxide has a molecular formula of Ca(OH)2. The structural formula is H-O-Ca-O-H.
Calcium and hydroxide ions combine in a 1:2 ratio, where one calcium ion (Ca^2+) combines with two hydroxide ions (OH^-) to form calcium hydroxide (Ca(OH)2).
