Answer 1

Limewater is used in many science experiments and is easy to make on your own.

Put 1 teaspoon of calcium hydroxide in a clean glass jar, up to 1 gallon in size. ...

Fill the jar with distilled or tap water.

Shake the jar vigorously for 1-2 minutes, then let it stand for 24 hours.

Answer 2

Limewater is prepared by stirring calcium hydroxide in pure waterand filtering off the excess undissolved Ca(OH)2. When excess calcium hydroxide is added to limewater, a suspension of calcium hydroxide particles results, giving it a milky aspect, in which case it has the commonname of milk of lime.
