Answer
Mchakato wa kemikali unaotokea wakati lime iliyopondwa (slaked lime) inapoongezwa kwenye udongo wenye asidi ni neutralization.
- Lime iliyopondwa ina calcium hydroxide (Ca(OH)₂), ambayo ni alkali.
- Wakati Ca(OH)₂ inapoingia kwenye udongo wenye asidi, inajibu na asidi, kama vile asidi ya sulfuric (H₂SO₄) au asidi ya nitriki (HNO₃).
- Mchakato huu unazalisha salts na maji. Kwa mfano, Ca(OH)₂ + H₂SO₄ → CaSO₄ + 2H₂O.
Hivyo, lime iliyopondwa inasaidia kupunguza asidi kwenye udongo, na hivyo kuboresha mazingira ya ukuaji wa mimea.
