It doesn't react because hydroxides don't react with water. It would just be limewater and go slightly cloudy. Hope I've helped

How do you purify calcium hydroxide?

You put your left hand in, you put your left hand out, you put your left hand it and shake it all about. Do the hokey pokey, and turn yourself around, and that's how you purify calcium hydroxide.


Is adding calcium to water a mixture or a compound?

When you add calcium to water, it forms calcium ions (Ca2+) in the water. This results in a mixture of calcium ions in water. The calcium ions and water molecules remain separate entities rather than bonding to form a compound.


What happens if you dissolve CaO in an acid and add water?

When CaO (calcium oxide) is dissolved in an acid and water is added, it will neutralize the acid and produce calcium salt and water. The reaction will release heat and calcium hydroxide may form as a result. This is a common method for preparing calcium salts or as a neutralizing agent for acidic solutions.


What happens when sodium hydroxide solution is added to calcium carbonate and then warmed?

CaCO3(s)+2NaOH(aq)--->Ca(OH)2(aq)+Na2CO3(aq) When you heat it later, the water in the solution evaporates leaving you with just the salts. Also, it is better to say, calcium carbonate is added to sodium hydroxide solution as you add a solid to a solution not really vice versa.


Copper sulphate add to sodium hydroxide result colour?

When copper sulfate is added to sodium hydroxide, a blue precipitate of copper hydroxide is formed. The color change observed is from the initial blue color of copper sulfate to the blue precipitate of copper hydroxide.

What happens when calcium is added in water?

Calcium will react vigorously with water to produce calcium hydroxide and hydrogen gas. The equation is: Ca + 2H2O --> Ca(OH)2 + H2. This reaction is exothermic, therefore it produces heat.


When you add water to calcium oxide what does it give?

Calcium Hydroxide is the product when Calcium Oxide is reacted with water. It is an exothermic reaction liberating heat. This process is called slaking. CaO + H2O -----> Ca(OH)2.

What is slake lime?

Quicklime is calcium oxide - CaO and slaked lime is calcium hydroxide - Ca(OH)2. CaCO3--------------CaO + CO2 This reaction occur at high temperature; mixing calcium oxide with water, the hydroxide is obtained.


What happens if you add too much water to calcium oxide?

it will go cold


How is slaked lime produced from limestone?

Heat it, the limestone (calcium carbonate) loses carbon dioxide to leave qucklime (calcium oxide). Add water to form slaked lime (calcium hydroxide).


When we add calcium tablets in water they react to produce bubbles. Why does this happen?

"Calcium tablets" is a bit vague. If you put calcium metal in water it will form bubbles as the calcium reacts with water to form calcium hydroxide and hydrogen gas (the bubbles). If you put tablets of some calcium salt in water ... you'd need to be more specific about what it is for us to answer the question.
