प्रश्न
What will happen if heating is not controlled while preparing plaster of Paris?
उत्तर
If gypsum (or calcium sulphate dihydrate) is heated above 100⁰C (373K) while preparing plaster of Paris, then all its water of crystallisation is eliminated and anhydrous calcium sulphate (CaSO4), called dead burnt plaster, is formed. The anhydrous calcium sulphate does not set like plaster of Paris on addition of water.
