Deliquescence refers to the characteristic of exhibiting a water vapor pressure lesser than the surrounding air. This signifies that a deliquescent is used to absorb water. The calcium chloride is utilized as a desiccant as it is hygroscopic in nature and easily absorbs moisture from the surrounding areas and keeps the system dry.  

CaCl2 + 2 H2O →Ca(OH)2 + 2HCl

What is the objective lens used to locate the specimen and first focus?
Mandarinka [93]
Course alteration is the first to be utilized to find the example, and just with the low power objective. When seeing an example, you should dependably utilize the lower control target focal points first. Low power focal point gives the most stretched out field of view and makes it less demanding to discover the example when you look through the magnifying lens. Finding the example at high power, without first focusing it in the field of view at low power, is almost outlandish.
