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. Soil pH - Wikipedia

   en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Soil_pH

   Soil pH is a measure of the acidity or basicity (alkalinity) of a soil. Soil pH is a key characteristic that can be used to make informative analysis both qualitative and quantitatively regarding soil characteristics. [1] pH is defined as the negative logarithm (base 10) of the activity of hydronium ions (H + or, more precisely, H 3 O + aq) in ...

4. Calcium carbonate - Wikipedia

   en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Calcium_carbonate

   At atmospheric partial pressure of CO 2, dissolved CO 2 concentration is 1.2 × 10 −5 moles per liter. The equation before that fixes the concentration of H 2 CO 3 as a function of CO 2 concentration. For [CO 2] = 1.2 × 10 −5, it results in [H 2 CO 3] = 2.0 × 10 −8 moles per liter. When [H 2 CO 3] is known, the remaining three equations ...

5. Liming (soil) - Wikipedia

   en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Liming_(soil)

   Prepared agricultural lime staged near a field in the UK. Liming is the application of calcium- (Ca) and magnesium (Mg)-rich materials in various forms, including marl, chalk, limestone, burnt lime or hydrated lime to soil. [1] In acid soils, these materials react as a base and neutralize soil acidity.

6. Lime softening - Wikipedia

   en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Lime_softening

   Lime softening (also known as lime buttering, lime-soda treatment, or Clark's process) [1] is a type of water treatment used for water softening, which uses the addition of limewater (calcium hydroxide) to remove hardness (deposits of calcium and magnesium salts) by precipitation.

7. Water purification - Wikipedia

   en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Water_purification

   Fresh water can have widely ranging pH values depending on the geology of the drainage basin or aquifer and the influence of contaminant inputs . If the water is acidic (lower than 7), lime, soda ash, or sodium hydroxide can be added to raise the pH during water purification processes. Lime addition increases the calcium ion concentration, thus ...

9. Lime (material) - Wikipedia

   en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Lime_(material)

   Lime is an inorganic material composed primarily of calcium oxides and hydroxides. It is also the name for calcium oxide which occurs as a product of coal-seam fires and in altered limestone xenoliths in volcanic ejecta. [1] The International Mineralogical Association recognizes lime as a mineral with the chemical formula of CaO. [2]
