Question

A small amount of solid calcium hydroxide is shaken vigorously in a test tube almost full of water until no further change occurs and most of the solid settles out. The resulting solution is:______.

Answer 1

Lime water,
`Ca(OH)_(2)_({aq} )` is formed.

Step-by-step explanation:

Lime-water is a clear and colourless dilute solution of aqueous calcium hydroxide salt.

Small amounts of calcium hydroxide salt,
`Ca(OH)_(2)_(s)` is sparsely soluble at room temperature when dispersed vigorously. if in excess, a white suspension called 'milk of lime'is formed.

I hope this explanation is helpful.
