Yes but it is not a single step reversal.
You start off with Limestone (CaCO3) you heat this and drive off Carbon dioxide (CO2) making Quicklime (CaO). You then slake the Quicklime by adding water (H2O) to make Slaked Lime (Ca(OH)2).
The Slaked lime will slowly turn back into limestone by reacting with the Carbon Dioxide (CO2) in the air - it is Carbonated - to make Limestone (CaCO3).
What else can I help you with?
How is slake lime made?
adding water to quick lime produces slaked lime.
Why is quick lime called quicklime?
Quicklime is called so because of its property to react quickly with water, producing heat and forming calcium hydroxide. This reaction is known as slaking and results in a rapid increase in temperature, hence the term "quick" lime.
What is meant by slaking of lime?
It is the process of converting CaO to Ca(OH)2 by adding the CaO into water. The reaction is: CaO+H2O ---> Ca(OH)2 This reaction is highly exothermic and releases large amount of heat (63.7 kJoules for 1 mol of CaO used).
What happens when you mix water and lime?
When water is mixed with lime (calcium oxide), a chemical reaction occurs to produce calcium hydroxide and release heat. This process is known as slaking and is used to create a hydrated lime paste that is commonly used in construction and as a mortar. The resulting mixture can also be used to create lime mortar for masonry work.
What are the differences between quicklime and lime, and how do they affect their respective uses in various applications?
Quicklime and lime are both forms of calcium oxide, but they differ in their chemical composition and properties. Quicklime is produced by heating limestone at high temperatures, while lime is produced by slaking quicklime with water. Quicklime is more reactive and caustic than lime, making it suitable for applications such as construction, agriculture, and water treatment. Lime, on the other hand, is less reactive and is commonly used in food production, pharmaceuticals, and environmental remediation. The differences in their reactivity and properties determine their specific uses in various applications.
How many times the volume of fat lime increases compared to volume of quick lime on slaking?
2-2.5 times.
Why is slaking of lime is necessary?
- to obtain calcium oxide - to obtain calcium hydroxide
Explain why sublimation is regarded as a physical change but the slaking of lime is considered as a chemical change?
- Sublimation don't change the molecule; solid iodine or sublimated iodine are iodine. - Slaking of lime transform the calcium oxide in calcium hydroxide. A chemical change occur.
Why is slaking of lime regarded as a chemical change?
Slaking of lime is considered a chemical change because it involves a chemical reaction. When water is added to quicklime (calcium oxide), it reacts exothermically to form slaked lime (calcium hydroxide), releasing heat. The chemical composition of the substance changes during this process, demonstrating a chemical change.
How is slake lime made?
adding water to quick lime produces slaked lime.
How do you pronounce slaking?
"(Slaking)".

How do you think slaked lime is manufactured from limestone?
Slaked lime is manufactured from limestone by heating limestone (CaCO3) to high temperatures to produce quicklime (CaO), then adding water to the quicklime to create calcium hydroxide, also known as slaked lime (Ca(OH)2). This process is known as slaking.

At what level do you evolves to slaking?
u dont slaking doesnt evolve. but a vigoroth evolves into slaking at lvl 32
What is added to quicklime to make slacked lime?
Water is added to quicklime the make slaked lime. Calcium hydroxide reacts with water to form calcium hydroxide. CaO + H2O --> Ca(OH)2
