Emission nebula take up about how much of the Milky Way galaxy?
Considering the size of the Milky Way Galaxy and the amount of "empty" space, the amount of space an emission nebula occupies is so small as to be infinitesimal and impossible to equate to a volume.
What galaxy are we in and approximately where are you located?
We are in the Milky Way Galaxy at the end of one of the arms.

What happens when hydrogen gas is passed through lime water?
When hydrogen is added to lime water, the solution becomes milky. This is because it forms calcium carbonate.
What gas are the star in the milky way galaxy made up of?
Mostly Hydrogen and Helium.
Are there gas clouds in the Milky Way?
Yes, there are huge clouds of hydrogen gas, called nebulae.
How would you test carbon dioxide to show that it was hydrogen?
Carbon dioxide form a milky suspension of calcium carbonate in calcium hydroxide; hydrogen doesn't react. But hydrogen react with oxygen when a flame exist.
Does the Milky Way Galaxy have an active galactic nucleus?
Our Milky Way has a supermassive black hole at its nucleus. It is an active radio source. It is probably not a Seyfert galaxy, which is a galaxy of a type characterized by a bright compact core that shows strong infrared emission, though.
What happen when Water Is Aded To Lime?
When hydrogen is added to lime water, the solution becomes milky. This is because it forms calcium carbonate.
How the galaxy formed?
Well this is a difficult question but it happened because a huge amount of hydrogen got collected in the area where the milky way is. This hydrogen and other particles collided and formed stars, planets, commets etc.
