Identification
A. Mix a sample with from 3 to 4 times its weight of water. The sample forms a smooth magma. The clear, supernatant liquid from the magma is alkaline to litmus.
B. Mix 1 g of sample with 20 mL of water, and add sufficient glacial acetic acid to effect solution. The resulting solution gives positive tests for Calcium.
Assay: Not less than 95.0% and not more than 100.5% of Ca(OH)2.
