The different chemical compounds that fall under the overarching term lime —quicklime hydrated lime slacked lime and limestone—are sharply related with quicklime being produced through the thermal decomposition of limestone by heating in a kiln and hydrated lime deriving from the mixing or slaking of quicklime with water to transform the CaO powder into the slurry
