calcium hydroxide the limestone calcium carbonate must be converted to calcium oxide and the calcium oxide then converted to calc ium hydroxide. The following is a brief chemical formula of this process: (Limestone) CaCO 3 + HEAT (Calcium Oxide) CaO + CO 2 However CaO is unstable in the presence of moisture and CO 2. A more stable form of
chemical reaction, so calcium hydroxide contains 75.7% CaO and 24.3% H 2O. The process of adding water to calcium oxide to produce calcium hydroxide is referred to as hydration process or lime slaking. The hydration of CaO, commercially referred to as quick lime, is an exothermic process

In limestone calcination, a decomposition process that occurs at 900 to 1050ºC, the chemical reaction is CaCO 3 (s) → CaO(s) + CO 2 (g). Today, this reaction largely occurs in a cement kiln.. The standard free energy of reaction is 0 in this case when the temperature, T, is equal to 1121 K, or 848 °C. Oxidation. In some cases, calcination of a metal results in oxidation of the metal to
Limestone is a common type of carbonate sedimentary rock.It is composed mostly of the minerals calcite and aragonite, which are different crystal forms of calcium carbonate (CaCO 3).Limestone forms when these minerals precipitate out of water containing dissolved calcium. This can take place through both biological and nonbiological processes, though biological processes have likely been more

Calcium carbonate, or CaCO3, comprises more than 4% of the earth’s crust and is found throughout the world. Its most common natural forms are chalk, limestone, and marble, produced by the sedimentation of the shells of small fossilized snails, shellfish, and coral over millions of years.
Calcium carbonate (limestone) is heated to form calcium oxide (quicklime) and carbon dioxide: It is an endothermic reaction and the equilibrium lies far to the left at low temperatures. Only at about 1200 K does the partial pressure of carbon dioxide exceed atmospheric pressure and the decomposition proceeds to completion.
Many minerals contain calcium. Calcium minerals are very common and can be mined anywhere. It is chiefly obtained from limestone, dolomite and gypsum. Common calcium-bearing minerals include anhydrite (calcium sulfate), gypsum (hydrated calcium sulfate), and aragonite or calcite (calcium
