Calcium hydroxide reacts with carbon dioxide to form calcium carbonate and water. ie. Ca(OH)2 + CO2 ---> CaCO3 + H2O. The reaction is not dangerous. Calcium hydroxide has been used to make lime mortar and plaster for buildings for thousands of years. It was even used in some of the pyramids in ancient Egypt. read more
