carbonate
Lime stones & sea shells contain calcium
carbonate
Carbonate decomposes in to calcium
oxide
Quick lime & carbon dioxide will escape in
to air
Calcium oxide reacts with water
vigorously & gives potassium sodium
carbonate & gives rise to calcium
carbonate (precipitate)
Alkali hydroxide remains in solution
which may be concentrated by boiling to
different extents
