Question

calcium oxide reacts vigorously with water to produce mcq​

Answer 1

Answer:

Solid calcium oxide reacts vigorously with water to form calcium hydroxide accompanied by the liberation of heat. This process is called slaking of lime. Calcium hydroxide dissolves in water to form its solution called lime water.

Answer 2

Hey mate.

Here's your answer.

When calcium oxide (chemical formula: CaO) reacts with water (chemical formula: H2O), the following reaction takes place:

• CaO+H2O→Ca(OH)2.

The product of this reaction is calcium hydroxide, also known as slaked lime. Thus, when calcium oxide reacts with water, slaked lime is produced.
