Hello! Does anyone know where to find the solubility of Ca(OH)2 in water as temperature changes? I need this information to answer the discussion in a lab report.
Perhaps this will help.

Oh my gosh, thank you SO MUCH Dr. Bob! You are a life saver.
Hello! To find the solubility of Ca(OH)2 in water as temperature changes, you can refer to a solubility table or use a solubility curve. Here's how you can find the information:
1. Solubility table: Look for a reliable chemistry reference book, textbook, or online source that provides solubility data for various compounds. Check the section related to calcium hydroxide (Ca(OH)2) solubility in water. The table will usually indicate solubility at different temperatures.
2. Solubility curve: A solubility curve is a graph that represents the solubility of a compound as a function of temperature. Search for a solubility curve specifically for calcium hydroxide in water. It will display the solubility at different temperatures. This type of graph is often found in chemistry textbooks or online resources.
When using a solubility curve, locate the point on the graph corresponding to the temperature you are interested in, and read off the solubility value. Keep in mind that solubility values are often reported in grams of solute per 100 grams of solvent or moles per liter (mol/L).
Remember to cite the reference you use in your lab report to acknowledge the source of the solubility data.
