The reaction of calcium hydroxide with what?

Explanation:

Certainly we can calculate a molar quantity of calcium hydroxide...

#n_"calcium hydroxide"=(1.34*g)/(74.09*g*mol^-1)=??*mol#...

Calcium hydroxide is obtained from calcium oxide...and in terms of the lime cycle (which results in the preparation of mortar, and cement, and concrete), this is a very important, and well-studied reaction.

#CaO(s) + H_2O(l) rarr Ca(OH)_2(s)darr#
