SHORT DESCRIPTION

Calcium chloride anhydrous (CaCl₂) is a chemical compound made up of calcium and chlorine. It is a kind of salt that appears as a white, highly soluble solid at room temperature. It also has the property of being deliquescent, which means it can absorb moisture from the air and become liquid. Calcium chloride is known to be hygroscopic, which implies that it can easily absorb moisture from the atmosphere. In its anhydrous form, it is present as a white, granular or powdered solid. Additionally, it is highly soluble in water and releases heat when it's dissolved.
