Hazard Predictions

Contact with anhydrous liquid HF causes CaO to incandesce (Mellor, J.W. 1956. Mellor's Comprehensive Treatise on Inorganic and Theoretical Chemistry. Vol. 2, Supp. 1, p. 122. Longmans, Green and Co Ltd.; Mellor, J.W. 1939. Mellor's Comprehensive Treatise on Inorganic and Theoretical Chemistry. Vol. 9, p. 101. Longmans, Green and Co Ltd.).

HCl and HF react violently with NaOH or ammonia (Lewis, R.J., Sr. 1992. Sax's Dangerous Properties of Industrial Materials, 8th Edition. New York: Van Nostrand Reinhold. pp. 1893, 1897).

Reactions between acids and KOH can be violent (MCA Case History No. 920, Case Histories of Accidents in the Chemical Industry, Washington, Manufacturing Chemists' Association).

Inorganic acids may react with bases to liberate acid and base fumes.
