What is the difference between slaked lime and lime water?
When you slake a lime an leave it for a few months, there will be a layer of water (providing you used a sufficient amount) ontop of the slaked lime putty. this water is limewater and is clear but contains tiny particles in suspension. The putty is what we refer to as slaked lime.
Is quick lime an acid?
Quick lime is a base. It reacts vigourously with water (hence the term "quick" living, as "quick and the dead") CaO + H2O -> CaOH + OH-
Is quick lime acidic or basic?
Quick lime, or calcium oxide, is considered a basic compound. It is highly alkaline and can react with water to form calcium hydroxide, which is also a strong base.
What is the difference between soda lime and lime soda?
Soda lime is a mixture of sodium hydroxide and calcium hydroxide used to absorb carbon dioxide. Lime soda is a solution of lime (calcium hydroxide) and soda (sodium carbonate), often used in water treatment to soften water by precipitating calcium and magnesium ions.
Why is calcium oxide called quick lime?
Calcium oxide is called quick lime because it reacts quickly with water to produce heat. This reaction is known as hydration, where calcium oxide combines with water to form calcium hydroxide, releasing a large amount of heat in the process. The term "quick" in quick lime refers to this rapid reaction with water.
What is the difference of quick lime and washing soda?
Quick lime is calcium oxide. Washing soda is sodium carbonate.

What is the difference between a lemon and lime?
The difference is one is yellow and one is green!!One has more acid making the colour to change and the taste to be sourer.
What happen when quick lime is added water?
It reacts with water to form calcium hydroxide.
Is quick lime the same as the lime water?
No. Quicklime is calcium oxide a compound with the formula CaO. Lime water is calcium hydroxide or Ca(OH)2 dissolved in water, producing a very basic solution. Lime, will form lime water if it is dissolved in water though. Dry calcium hydroxide is known as slaked lime.
Why does rain react with limestone?
its kind of hard to explain. orignaly it dosent react with water (execpt from erosion) until it is made into calcium oxide using a blast furnace the new quick lime then is recated with water to form slaked lime which can be made into lime water by adding even more water. then there is another proces where slaked lime can be turned into limestone again and the whole cycle again. 1) calcium carobante + heat = quick lime + carbon doixide or CaCO3 + heat = CaO + C(O)2 2) quick lime + water = slaked lime CaO + (H)2O = Ca(OH)2
What does calcium oxide produce when it reacts with water?
calcium oxide (quick lime) produces calcium hydroxide (slaked lime) when reacts with water.
Is quick lime acidic or basic?
Quick lime, or calcium oxide, is considered a basic compound. It is highly alkaline and can react with water to form calcium hydroxide, which is also a strong base.
How is lime formed?
Quick lime is obtained by heating (calcining) calcium carbonate. If the CaO obtained is reacted with water it produces slaked lime Ca(OH)2
What is the difference between soda lime and lime soda?
Soda lime is a mixture of sodium hydroxide and calcium hydroxide used to absorb carbon dioxide. Lime soda is a solution of lime (calcium hydroxide) and soda (sodium carbonate), often used in water treatment to soften water by precipitating calcium and magnesium ions.
Does any sound is heard or not when solid quick lime and water are added?
A hissing Sunday
