No, it does not. Actually, both calcium and hydrogen in Ca(OH)2 are at the highest oxidation states (+2 and +1, respectively) allowed for them. Yet Ca(OH)2 readily reacts with atmospheric CO2 to give CaCO3.

First, CaO will react with water to for Ca(OH)2. From there, it is like any other acid/base reaction. If the Ca2+ ion is solvent with the acid anion, then both will remain in solution while the hydroxide and hydronium ions combine to form water in accordance with their pKa.

I guess you are taking about the thermal decomposition reaction of calcium carbonate
[math]CaCO_3 = CaO + CO_2 [/math]
At about 825°C if I remember correctly, calcium carbonate breaks down to calcium oxide and carbon dioxide (the products) the calcium carbonate is the only “reactant”

Calcium hydroxide thermal decomposition is the name for this reaction.
Ca(OH)[math]_2[/math] → CaO + H[math]_2[/math]O
56 grams of CaO is a mole and 18 grams of water is a mole so you started with a mole of calcium hydroxide.

Required equation for the above is given as
2Ca+ O2-->2CaO
Oxidation state of Ca:- 0
Oxidation state of O2:0
Oxidation state of Ca in CaO:-+2
Oxidation state of oxygen in CaO:- -2
Calcium gets oxidised from 0 oxidation state to an oxidation state of +2
Hence oxygen is the oxidant(or the oxidizing agent)in the given question

Well, we could write…

Calcium oxide is the anhydride of calcium hydroxide….

It is possible to burn calcium in pure oxygen:
2Ca + O2(g) = 2CaO
Change in Free Energy: ΔG(1000C) = -1000.9kJ (negative, so the reaction runs)
Change in Enthalpy: ΔH(1000C) = -1288.6kJ (negative, so the reaction is exothermic)
This reaction produces calcium oxide but no hydrogen.
So perhaps you meant the reaction of calcium with water:
Ca + H2O(l) = Ca(OH)2 + H2(g)
Change in Free Energy: ΔG(20C) = -423.8kJ (negative, so the reaction runs)
Change in Enthalpy: ΔH(20C) = -413.9kJ (negative, so the reaction is exothermic)
And this reaction does produce hydrogen and calcium hydroxide, but no calcium oxide.

You are kidding right? Calcium oxide is CaO, so you need one calcium and one oxygen.
2Ca(s) + O2(g) → 2CaO(s)

When calcium oxide reacts with water, Calcium Hydroxide (slaked lime) is formed. Calcium Hydroxide is an Alkali.
