Do you mean calcium oxide and water, by any chance?
Explanation:
I don't think that calcium oxide,
Calcium oxide, also called quicklime, will react with water to form calcium hydroxide,

Calcium hydroxide is relatively soluble in water, but the amount that does dissolve dissociates completely to produce a basic solution of
It's worth mentioning that this reaction is quite exothermic, meaning that heat is being given off as calcium hydroxide is produced by the reaction.
