Answer:

Chemical equations :

  1. NaOH + H2O ---> NaOH + Heat
  2. CaO + H2O ---> CA(OH)2 + Heat

Explanation:

Similarity :-

  • Both equations are exothermic. It means a lot of heat is evolved during the reaction.
  • Both reactions Form strong basic solution.

Difference :-

  • NaOH is monoacidic base and CaO is diacidic base.
  • NaOH , CaO should be added to water gradually with constant stirring.

Hope this helps you...
