  2. Source of Calcium Ions in Reactions
    • Provides Ca²⁺ ions in qualitative and quantitative chemical analysis, often in double displacement reactions, flame tests, or ionic precipitation studies.
  3. Electrolyte in Laboratory-Scale Experiments
    • Utilized in electrochemical cells or conductivity studies where calcium ions are needed.
  4. Osmotic Agent in Molecular Biology
    • Sometimes used in bacterial transformation protocols to increase cell membrane permeability in CaCl₂-competent cell preparation.

Secondary Uses

  1. Freezing Point Depression Studies
    • Used in colligative property experiments to demonstrate depression of freezing point and understand solute effects in solutions.
  2. Heat Generation Demonstrations
