What is produced when limewater and carbon dioxide reacts?

calcium carbonate (CaCO3)


What gas is produced when calcium carbonate reacts with acid?

carbon dioxide


How is Calcium carbonate used to neutralise acid emissions from power stations?

The calcium carbonate reacts with the acid as per any carbonate: Calcium Carbonate + Acid -> Calcium Salt + Water + Carbon Dioxide


What do you observe when calcium carbonate reacts with dilute nitric acid?

calcium nitrate , carbon dioxide and water are formed...


How do you do the test for carbon dioxide?

To test the presence of carbon dioxide bubble the gas into the lime water. Carbon dioxide reacts to form calcium carbonate which turns cloudy.


What is the Equation for when carbonate reacts with acid?

A reaction between an acid and a carbonate gives a salt, water and carbon dioxide. So the word equation is: acid + carbonate -----> salt + carbon dioxide + water eg: hydrochloric acid + calcium carbonate ----> calcium chloride + carbon dioxide + water See: http://www.sky-web.net/science/reaction-types.htm


What reacts with Lime water?

Limewater reacts with carbon dioxide to produce a precipitate. It reacts to form calcium carbonate(s) and water(l).


What happens when an acid reacts with calcium carbonate?

it depends what acid, but generally it would produce carbon dioxide, water, and a calcium salt.


What metal reacts with water to give a solution which forms a white precipitate with carbon dioxide?

Calcium. It reacts with water to form a solution of calcium hydroxide which can then react with carbon dioxide to form calcium carbonate, a white precipitate. You will get similar results with strontium and barium.


In the Calcite test what is in the vinegar that has been with a calcite?

The component of vinegar that reacts with the calcite is acetic acid. The acid reacts with calcium carbonate to produce water, carbon dioxide, and calcium acetate.


Why do you get gas when you take calcium?

Calcium usually exists as calcium carbonate in pill form and when this compound reacts with the acids in your stomach, carbon dioxide is released. That CO2 is your gas.


What happens when calcium carbonate reacts with water?

At standard temperature and pressure, calcium carbonate does not react with neutral water, but simply dissolves to a slight extent. If the water is sufficiently acidic as a result of other constituents, carbon dioxide gas can be displaced from the calcium carbonate.
