  1. Calcium Hydroxide By: Gabriel and Aman

  2. What is Calcium Hydroxide • Ca(OH)2 also known as Calcium Hydroxide is a colorless crystal powder. It has a pH level of 12.4 making it a strong basic solution. It is used for mortar, piping, and plaster making it very useful on Earth.

  3. How do you Make Calcium Hydroxide • To create Calcium Hydroxide follow these steps. First heat chalk until it decomposes into Calcium Oxide. It should turn into a white powder. Then spray the powder with water and you will get Calcium Hydroxide. For a Tutorial click the link below. • CaO+H2O= Ca(OH)2 • http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=571PoD3JwuA&feature=related

  4. Current important uses of Calcium Hydroxide on Earth • Calcium Hydroxide has a few uses. Some examples are mortar for structures, Plaster for walls, cleaner for sewages, and piping for fresh water.

  5. Why we Think you Should Use This Base in Space • We think that Calcium Hydroxide should be used in space because it is a very important substance. It is used to create the structure of buildings and bind things together. It is also best used for sewage treatment, Plaster and the most important use… water systems. Every human needs water and it will be very efficient if there was a water system on the Moon or Mars.

  6. What you will be Missing out on • If you do not want to take Calcium Hyroxide into space It is perfectly fine because it will be your loss. Calcium Hydroxide has many uses and not bringing it to the Moon or Mars could make building pipes, shelters, and cleaning a much harder job.
