Shaking a few granules with water and adding universal indicator turns the mixture deep blue-violet, a vivid way to show that metal oxides form alkaline solutions. Warming the granules with dilute hydrochloric acid neutralises the acid and gives calcium chloride solution; a drop of that solution on a flame-test wire produces the brick-red flame used to identify calcium. Together these tests let students place calcium oxide firmly among the basic oxides.
Calcium oxide is also a component of soda lime, the mixture with sodium hydroxide that is heated with sodium ethanoate to prepare methane in organic chemistry practicals. In agriculture and environmental science lessons, quicklime shows how liming raises the pH of acidic soil. The oxide reacts with moisture and releases heat, so dispense it with a dry spatula, wear goggles and gloves, and reseal the pack immediately.
ScienceLab, the trading name of Jain Scientific Equipments Private Limited in Ambala, Haryana, sources Calcium Oxide (Granules) 200 g for teaching and testing laboratories and dispatches each pack with its MSDS. Schools, colleges, dealers and importers can combine it with acids, indicators and glassware on a single enquiry. Company details are on the ScienceLab profile.
