Write, with the balanced chemical equation, what happens when ammonium chloride is heated with dry slaked lime. [For External Candidates]
When ammonium chloride (NH4Cl) is heated with dry slaked lime, it undergoes a reaction that produces calcium chloride (CaCl2), water (H2O), and ammonia gas (NH3).
Balanced Chemical Equation:
2NH4Cl + Ca(OH)2 → CaCl2 + 2H2O + 2NH3
