The carbon dioxide forms a precipitate with the calcium hydroxide. (Lime water is just a solution of calcium hydroxide) This precipiate is what makes it look chalky
it is sometimes white, and also sometimes some look like regular rocks
no,it will not. carbon dioxide ill thurn limewater chalky..:)
No, nitrogen does not turn limewater chalky. Chalky precipitates in limewater are a result of carbon dioxide reacting with calcium hydroxide to form calcium carbonate. Nitrogen does not participate in this reaction.
Limewater
No
it turns into a milky solution
In the presence of carbon dioxide, limewater (calcium hydroxide solution) will turn milky due to the formation of calcium carbonate as a result of a chemical reaction. This is often used as a test for the presence of carbon dioxide gas.
carbon dioxide turns lime water chalky. the more carbon dioxide, the faster the limewater turns chalky. Exhaled air contains carbon dioxide waste from the bodies organs, and that's why it contains more carbon dioxide than inhaled air.
Because there is an excessive amount of CO2, causing another chemical reaction to take place.
Snail breathes, CO2 add Lime water = Limewater turns chalky white
The plant in the wooden box has no light, so it cannot photosynthesize. The plant in the dark will still respire and so produce carbon dioxide, indicated by the limewater going milky. The plant in the clear glass box will use up any carbon dioxide and produce oxygen instead.
yes the air around turns the lime water chalky. It is due to the formation of calcium carbonate from lime water due to its reaction with atmospheric air which contains carbondioxide. the chemical reaction for the phenomenon is as follows Ca(OH)2+co2 =CaCO3+H2O
When you breathe out, Carbon Dioxide (CO2) is released. This reacts with the limewater to form a precipitate of calcium carbonate which appears as a white semitransparent substance in the solution.Because of this phenomenon, limewater is offen used in chemistry as an indicator of Carbon Dioxide. The equation (found on Wikipedia) is here below:Ca(OH)2 (aq) + CO2 (g) => CaCO3 (s) + H2O (l)Read more: Why_does_a_clear_limewater_turned_chalky_when_you_blow
