It is not correct: calcium chloride is more efficient (but also more expensive); the cause is that the CaCl2 enthalpy of dissolution is higher.

Why should calcium chloride manufacturers use more concentrated acid?

Calcium chloride can be made from limestone and hydrochloric acid, and if you do it that way you want concentrated acid to make the process run faster.


What melts ice faster calcium chloride or sodium chloride?

Sounds like a great question to be answered with an experiment. Take equal amounts of ice in identical containers at the same temperature, sprinkle each set of ice cubes with equal amounts of the different substances, also at the same temperature, then observe which container of ice cubes melts the fastest. Here are more opinions and answers from other FAQ Farmers: * In my experience, calcium chloride melts ice fastest. Cat litter doesn't dissolve, so it obviously can't lower the freezing point of ice. * We did this experiment for school. We found out that calcium chloride did work the best, but rubbing alcohol and rock salt worked well, too. We also found out that the cat box litter did not work at all. All it did was absorb all the ice and water and make a big ice chunk.

What is the pH value of calcium Iodide?

A 10% solution of calcium nitrate has a pH of about 6.0. Calcium nitrate is the primary source of water soluble calcium in hydroponics. Prolonged use in other growing media can result in a gradual increase in pH because the negatively charged nitrate ions are taken up faster than the positively charged calcium ions.
