Aim: To Determine The Concentration Of a Limewater Solution I am going to perform an experiment in which will allow me to determine the concentration, in g dm-3, of limewater given to me containing approximately 1g dm-3 of calcium hydroxide. I will be performing a simple neutralisation reaction, using HCL, to determine the concentration. I will carry out a titration to determine this. 250cm3 of limewater will be given and the HCl provided is exactly 2.00mol dm-3. Background Information (Essential AS Chemistry) Limewater is formed when slacked lime is dissolved in water. The process is started by the vigorous reaction between calcium oxide (limestone) and water. This forms calcium hydroxide (slacked lime). The addition of more water saturates the slacked lime and forms an aqueous solution known as limewater. Equations ACID + METAL HYDROXIDE SALT + WATER Calcium Hydroxide + Hydrochloric Acid Calcium Chloride + Water Ca(OH)2 aq +...
