Calcium Carbonate, Calcium oxide and Calcium hydroxide.

Explanation:

  • The soil becomes acidic when the concentration of the acidic compound mostly salts increases in the soil.
  • As a result of the increase in concentration, the pH of the soil decreases which interfere with the fertility of the soil.
  • To reduce the acidic nature of the soil, the basic compounds must be added because these basic compounds will react with acids and neutralise the soil.
  • The most common basic compounds are the Calcium Carbonate, Calcium oxide and Calcium hydroxide.
  • These basic salts react with the acids and the chemical reaction is known as the Neutralization reaction.
