Calcium molybdate is the salt of the element calcium with molybdic acid . In nature, the compound occurs in the form of the mineral powellite . The compound crystallizes in the space group I 4 1 / a (space group no. 88) with the lattice constants a  = 5.198 (69) Å and c  = 11.458 (41) Å Template: room group / 88

The substance can be used for the gravimetric analysis of the calcium content by means of precipitation as calcium molybdate. After exposure to short-wave UV radiation , the compound shows green luminescence ; after exposure to lower-energy UV radiation, orange luminescence is observed. Both effects are attributed to transitions in the molybdate anion ; the possible application of calcium molybdate in lasers was the subject of research in 2008.
