Not only NaOH, can be any other compound that do not have any water molecule attached to it such as anhydrous CaCl2, Silica gel, anhydrous NaCl..
This is a covalent compound.
2NH4Cl + CaO --> 2NH3 + CaCl2 + H2O
compound
The product that is left after heating a hydrate is an anhydrous compound. This means that the water molecules in the hydrate have been removed through the process of heating, leaving behind the anhydrous form of the compound.
Not only NaOH, can be any other compound that do not have any water molecule attached to it such as anhydrous CaCl2, Silica gel, anhydrous NaCl..
