2. Calcium hydroxide - Wikipedia

   en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Calcium_hydroxide

   Calcium hydroxide is modestly soluble in water, as seen for many dihydroxides. Its solubility increases from 0.66 g/L at 100 °C to 1.89 g/L at 0 °C. [8] Its solubility product K sp of 5.02 × 10 −6 at 25 °C, [1] its dissociation in water is large enough that its solutions are basic according to the following dissolution reaction:

3. Base (chemistry) - Wikipedia

   en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Base_(chemistry)

   Strong bases hydrolyze in water almost completely, resulting in the leveling effect." [7] In this process, the water molecule combines with a strong base, due to the water's amphoteric ability; and, a hydroxide ion is released. [7] Very strong bases can even deprotonate very weakly acidic C–H groups in the absence of water.

4. Hydroxide - Wikipedia

   en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Hydroxide

   A solution or suspension of calcium hydroxide is known as limewater and can be used to test for the weak acid carbon dioxide. The reaction Ca(OH) 2 + CO 2 ⇌ Ca 2+ + HCO − 3 + OH − illustrates the basicity of calcium hydroxide. Soda lime, which is a mixture of the strong bases NaOH and KOH with Ca(OH) 2, is used as a CO 2 absorbent.

5. Calcium - Wikipedia

   en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Calcium

   Calcium hydroxide, Ca(OH) 2, is a strong base, though not as strong as the hydroxides of strontium, barium or the alkali metals. [17] All four dihalides of calcium are known. [18] Calcium carbonate (CaCO 3) and calcium sulfate (CaSO 4) are particularly abundant minerals. [19]

6. Superbase - Wikipedia

   en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Superbase

   Caubère defines superbases as "bases resulting from a mixing of two (or more) bases leading to new basic species possessing inherent new properties. The term superbase does not mean a base is thermodynamically and/or kinetically stronger than another, instead it means that a basic reagent is created by combining the characteristics of several ...

7. Base anhydride - Wikipedia

   en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Base_anhydride

   Quicklime (calcium oxide) is a base anhydride. It reacts with water to become hydrated lime (calcium hydroxide), [2] which is a strong base, chemically akin to lye. This reaction is exothermic. [2] CaO + H 2 O → Ca(OH) 2 (ΔH r = −63.7 kJ/mol of CaO) Sodium oxide reacts readily and irreversibly with water to give sodium hydroxide: [3] Na 2 ...
