Discussion
State whether the following is true or false.
Cement without added gypsum would set too slowly to be useful.
Answer: B
It would set far too quickly, flash setting within minutes as the tricalcium aluminate reacts. Gypsum is a retarder, so its absence accelerates rather than delays the set. A cement flash setting in the mixer would be useless on site.
