Product Overview
Lime water is a clear, saturated solution of calcium hydroxide (Ca(OH)₂) in water, widely used in laboratory settings for qualitative chemical analysis. This laboratory-grade lime water is prepared under controlled conditions to ensure purity and consistency, making it ideal for experiments requiring precise reactions. When carbon dioxide is passed through lime water, it turns milky due to the formation of calcium carbonate, a key indicator in various chemical tests. The solution is stable under normal storage conditions and should be kept in a tightly sealed container to prevent contamination or evaporation. Its versatility extends to educational demonstrations, research applications, and industrial testing where calcium hydroxide reactivity is essential. The product is free from impurities, ensuring accurate and reproducible results in experimental procedures.
