The solubility of calcium hydroxide ___ with rise in temperature. (increases/decreases)

Open in App

Solution

The solubility of calcium hydroxide decreases with rise in temperature. Its solubility is less in water. But the dissolved $C a (O H)_{2}$ produces an appreciable amount of $O H^{-}$ ions in the solution so it is called a strong alkali.
