What is formed when carbon dioxide is added to a water solution?

A small amount of carbon dioxide will dissolve in water to produce carbonic acid, a weak acid.


What is produced when carbon dioxide is added to lime water?

When carbon dioxide is bubbled through it, they react together to form calcium carbonate (CaCO3) CO2 + Ca(OH)2 ---> CaCO3 + H2O This is the white precipitate


What happens when carbon dioxide gas is passed through calcium hydroxide solution?

When carbon dioxide gas is passed/bubbled through aqueous calcium hydroxide (also known as 'limewater'), a white precipitate will be formed. This means that the solution will turn cloudy/milky due to the formation of that white precipitate.Ca(OH)2(aq) + CO2(g) → CaCO3(s) + H2O(l)The precipitate, calcium carbonate, is only sparingly soluble in water. It will exist as a suspension in the resulting solution.But when excess carbon dioxide is added, this reaction takes place instead:CaCO3(s) + H2O(l) + CO2(g) → Ca(HCO3)2(aq)The calcium carbonate undergoes further reaction with water and carbon dioxide to form calcium bicarbonate (or calcium hydrogen carbonate), which is soluble. Thus the precipitate appears to 'disappear' or 'dissolve'. Thus, a colourless solution is formed.----- Other answers -----Water is added to give calcium hydroxide, and carbon dioxide is passed through this solution to precipitate the desired calcium carbonate, referred to in the industry as precipitated calcium carbonate (PCC):if carbon dioxide is passed through it it will turn cloudy and if it is done for to long then it will turn colourless.

Reaction of NaOH and carbon dioxide in water?

When carbon dioxide is added to water containing sodium hydroxide carbonate ions are formed but the excess of carbon dioxide produces bicarbonate ions on evaporation a mixture of sodium carbonate and sodium bicarbonate is obtained.

When vinegar is added to some marble chips calcium carbonate what is the gas formed and how can it be identified?

The gas formed is CO2, carbon dioxide. The simple test for carbon dioxide is to bubble it through lime water (a solution of CaOH, caclium hydroxide) where the solution gooes milky.
