Answer:

Quick lime(CaO) combines with water to form calcium hydroxide(Ca(OH)

2

). It is an exothermic reaction as heat is produced in the reaction.

CaO+H2

O→Ca(OH) 2+heat

On adding excess of calcium hydroxide in water, a saturated solution of calcium hydroxide is formed which is called lime water. Lime water is basic in nature and therefore has a pH above 7.
