ime water can be used to detect the presence of carbon dioxide because lime water reacts with carbon dioxide to produce a precipitate of calcium carbonate:Ca(OH)2 (aq) + CO2 (g) → CaCO3 (s) + H2O (l)
no, lime water doesn't produce carbon dioxide, it just detects it.

What is the effect carbon dioxide in lime water?
Lime water turns milky when carbon dioxide is added to it.Lime water also turns into Calcium carbonate (Limestone) solution
Function of lime water?
It is to test for the presence of carbon dioxide. If carbon dioxide is present,it will turn chalky however if carbon dioxide is absent,lime water will remain colourless.
Why does lime water go cloudy?
Lime water goes cloudy when a reaction takes place with carbon dioxide. Lime water detects the presence of lime water.
What color does lime water change to when carbon dioxide is bubbled in?
The lime water goes cloudy.
How do you text for carbon dioxide?
lime water (calcium hydroxide) turns milky when carbon dioxide is present
What is soda lime?
Soda lime is a mixture of Ca(OH)2, NaOH, KOH in water used to absorb carbon dioxide.
How would you test or carbon dioxide?
add lime water to the air if the lime water turns cloudy then carbon dioxide is present
What reacts with lime water forming a precipitate?
Carbon dioxide
How could we confirm that the gas generated was in fact Carbon dioxide?
Test it with lime water. If the lime water goes milky you have carbon dioxide.

What is a test to show that a gas is carbon dioxide?
Put the gas (CO2) in lime water. If the lime water changes colour, then it means that there is carbon dioxide in the gas depending on how fast the lime water changes colour
Which chemicals detect carbon dioxide?
