Answer:

If the soil is acidic and unsuitable for farming, the farmer can neutralise the acidity with slaked lime, quick lime and chalk. Farmers typically use slaked lime, quick lime and chalk to boost fertility. They also use these bases when the soil becomes too acidic for a variety of reasons.These bases act as a neutralising agent, removing the acidity from the soil.It will be a neutralising reaction in this case.

Explanation:

Lime is added to the soil to maintain its pH and make the soil more fertile for the growth of a particular plant or crop. Lime also known as calcium hydroxide is added to lawn grass making the soil optimal for growth. Lime is also known as calcium hydroxide which is alkaline in nature. Its use includes treatment of acidic soil as it neutralizes the soil’s acidity. This soil has sulphates, chlorides or even phosphates which is neutralised by the alkalinity of lime.Hence a farmer will always add lime or calcium hydroxide to the soil when the soil is acidic in nature and maintain the pH for better growth of grass, plants, crops, etc. Lime is mostly used for lawn grasses. So to treat acidity, If the soil is acidic and unsuitable for farming, the farmer can neutralise the acidity with slaked lime, quick lime and chalk.
