Answer:
When calcium oxide (chemical formula: CaO) reacts with water (chemical formula: H2O), the following reaction takes place: The product of this reaction is calcium hydroxide, also known as slaked lime. Thus, when calcium oxide reacts with water, slaked lime is produced.
When mixed, calcium oxide and water react together highly exothermically to form calcium hydroxide: If water is dripped slowly onto a lump of calcium oxide, a hissing is heard as excess water is turned to steam by the heat produced in the reaction.
