Well, isn't that just a happy little question! Soaking cotton wool with lime water helps to soften and break down the fibers, making it easier to work with in various crafts and projects. It's like giving the cotton wool a little spa treatment to help it become more pliable and ready for whatever creative journey you have in store. Just remember, there are no mistakes, only happy accidents in the world of crafting!
Lime water absorbs the carbon dioxide gas produced during the reaction
Commonly called "Lime scale" it is basically recipatated minerals that are in the water (Calcium mainly). When the water heats up the minerals become solid and attach to the metal or plastic surfaces of the kettle.
The symbol for lime water is Ca(OH)2. Lime water is a saturated solution of calcium hydroxide in water.
When you slake a lime an leave it for a few months, there will be a layer of water (providing you used a sufficient amount) ontop of the slaked lime putty. this water is limewater and is clear but contains tiny particles in suspension. The putty is what we refer to as slaked lime.
Lime water is alkaline.
Yes, lime water is alkaline.
yes it is found in lime yes it is found in lime.
lime flavored water.
Lime water is used during the reaction of the acid sample with marble chips to test for the presence of carbon dioxide. If carbon dioxide is produced during the reaction, it will react with the lime water to form a white precipitate of calcium carbonate, confirming the presence of carbon dioxide in the acid sample.
Lime water is used in an experiment to test if carbon dioxide is produced from acid reacting with a marble chip. If you see a calcium carbonate in your lime water at the end of the reaction, you will know that it produced the gas, carbon dioxide.
No. Quicklime is calcium oxide a compound with the formula CaO. Lime water is calcium hydroxide or Ca(OH)2 dissolved in water, producing a very basic solution. Lime, will form lime water if it is dissolved in water though. Dry calcium hydroxide is known as slaked lime.
Quicklime is calcium oxide (CaO), a white crystalline solid obtained by heating limestone in a kiln. Lime water, on the other hand, refers to a saturated solution of calcium hydroxide (Ca(OH)2) in water. Quicklime is a solid, while lime water is a liquid solution.
