Aragonite and calcite are two minerals formed from calcium carbonate (CaCO. Lime (calcium oxide) is produced by heating limestone or seashells (calcium carbonate). The chemistry of calcium carbonate is similar to that of sodium carbonate and potassium carbonate except that calcium carbonate is not soluble in water.
~75% Calcium Hydroxide (Ca(OH)2) ~20% Water (H2O) ~5% Sodium Hydroxide (NaOH). Soda Lime is prepared by mixing powdered slaked lime with a fine mist of 20% sodium hydroxide solution in a rotary mixer to form porous, spherical granules which are then dried.
