limewater is Ca(OH)2
the reason for CO2 to turn limewater milky is because
Ca(OH)2 (aq) + CO2 (g) → CaCO3 (s) + H2O (l)
the precipitate CaCO3 formed.
I think SO2 could also turn limewater milky because the product CaSO4 is only slightly soluble in water, so most of it remains as a precipitate.
Ca(OH)2 + SO2 ---> CaSO4 + H2O

What is the property of a limewater?
Limewater is a saturated aqueous solution of calcium hydroxide. It is used to detect the presence of carbon dioxide by turning milky white due to the formation of calcium carbonate. This property makes it useful in various applications such as in agriculture to test for soil acidity and in medicine to treat indigestion.
A clear colourless liquid used to test far a gas which your body gets rid of?
The liquid you are referring to is likely limewater, which turns milky white in the presence of carbon dioxide gas that is exhaled by the body. This reaction is commonly used to test for the presence of carbon dioxide in a gas.
Lime water turns milky in the presence of?
limewater turns milky because when co2 reacts with it the particles make it luk cloudy and milky........... ********************************* And you could add that the cloudy appearance is due to the formation of CaCO3, which is insoluble in water.
What happens to the limewater if the gas is present?
If a gas is present in limewater, such as carbon dioxide, it will react with the limewater to form a white precipitate of calcium carbonate. This reaction causes the limewater to become cloudy or milky in appearance. It is a common test for the presence of carbon dioxide gas.
How do you test for carbon dioxide when calcium carbonate reacts with acid?
To test for carbon dioxide gas produced when calcium carbonate reacts with acid, you can bubble the gas through limewater. If carbon dioxide is present, it will turn the limewater cloudy or milky due to the formation of calcium carbonate.
A gas that turns limewater milky and that you breathe out?
carbon dioxide formula: CO2 structure: O=C=O
Does carbon dioxide turn limewater chalky and why?
it turns into a milky solution
Reshma passed a gas through limewater this showed it is limewater what colour did it went?
When carbon dioxide gas is passed through limewater, a white precipitate of calcium carbonate forms, causing the limewater to turn milky.
What is the test for dioxide?
Bubbling through limewater. The gas is present if the limewater turns cloudy :)
What is the property of a limewater?

This property makes it useful in various applications such as in agriculture to test for soil acidity and in medicine to treat indigestion.
Why does limewater go milky?
Limewater get milky at the presence of carbon dioxide dissolved in it.

Does ammonia turn limewater milky?
No, ammonia does not turn limewater milky. When ammonia reacts with limewater (calcium hydroxide solution), it forms a clear solution without any visible change. The milky appearance in limewater is typically caused by the precipitation of calcium carbonate when carbon dioxide is bubbled through the solution.
How do you test a gas to see if it was carbon dioxide?
Bubbling the gas into limewater is the classic test for CO2. Limewater is a saturated solution of Ca(OH)2. When CO2 is dissolved it reacts to produce insoluble CaCO3 and the solution turns cloudy. Ca(OH)2(aq) + CO2(aq) --> CaCO3(s) + H2O(l) :)
What is made of carbon and oxygen is used by plants and turns limewater milky?
This compound is carbon dioxide - CO2.
What can be observed when air is blown into limewater?
When air is blown into limewater, it turns milky white due to the formation of calcium carbonate. This happens because the carbon dioxide in the air reacts with the calcium hydroxide in limewater to form insoluble calcium carbonate, which gives the solution a milky appearance.
What test could you use to find out if CO2 gas is present in a small container?
Blow it through limewater. If the limewater turns "milky" or "cloudy" (a white substance is shown) then Carbon Dioxide is present. If nothing happens, then Carbon Dioxide is not present in your solution.
