Cao = 56gm and H20 =18gm.

Then,
The ratio of this
Rch = Cao/H2o = 56/18 = 3.112.
There for X = 10x1/Rch.
X = 10x1/3.112 = 3.21.

Slaking is of the process by adding water of turning the traditional building material lime into burned lime.

How we introduce the CaO to the clay specimen to find the swell in the specimen due to slaking? Please explain to me.
