Application :

  • Desiccant: Calcium chloride is hygroscopic, meaning it can absorb moisture from the air. In laboratories, it is often used as a desiccant to keep environments dry.

  • Drying agent: Calcium chloride is frequently used to dry gases in laboratory experiments.

  • Freezing-point depression: Calcium chloride is often used to lower the freezing point of water in cooling baths. This property is particularly useful in experiments where sub-zero temperatures are required.

  • Catalyst: Calcium chloride can act as a catalyst in certain reactions. Its use as a catalyst depends on the specific chemical process being conducted in the laboratory.

  • Electrolyte in cells: Calcium chloride solutions can be used as electrolytes in certain types of cells, such as galvanic cells or batteries.

  • Density gradient centrifugation: Calcium chloride solutions are sometimes used in density gradient centrifugation, a technique used for separating particles or molecules based on their density differences.
