Calcium chloride
Calcium chloride
(
chemical formula
CaCl
2
) is the
ionic compound
of
calcium
and
chlorine
. It is a
salt
that behaves as a typical ionic
halide
, being
solid
at
room temperature
and highly
soluble
in water. Common applications include
brine
for refrigeration plants,
ice
and dust control on roads, and
desiccation
. Because of its
hygroscopic
nature, attracting and holding water,
anhydrous
calcium chloride must be kept in airtight containers.
