Not sure what you mean. If you mixed the Sodium Hydroxide with the Calcium chloride you would get instant Calcium Carbonate (insoluble). If you mixed Sodium Hydroxide with Sodium Carbonate it would work however if you are not a chemistry kind of guy you will never be able to balance the 2 part with the Calcium Chloride portion.

If you are not a chemistry kind of guy best stick to exactly recipes recommended no substitutions.
