How to determine daily alkalinity usage when dosing kalkwasser?

I'm not really sure how to ask this question correctly.

I want to find out how much dKH 1 teaspoon of kalkwasser contains when mixed into a known amount of water (let's say 1 gallon).

Maybe a hypothetical example will better illustrate my question:

Assume 1 teaspoon of kalk powder completely dissolved in 1 gallon of RO/DI water.
Assume no precipitation from atmospheric CO2, or any other chemical reaction.

The system evaporates 1 gallon of water per day, which is replaced by my 1 gallon of kalkwasser solution. The dKH stays constant everyday, thus in equilibrium.

So how much dKH does my system consume per day in this scenario?

Sorry if the question is phrased weirdly, perhaps someone can kindly help me ask my question correctly?
