How do you test presence of carbon dioxide?

Bubble the gas through limewater (calcium hydroxide), and then a white precipitate is formed, which is actually calcium carbonate.


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.


When solution x is added to calcuim carbonate bubbles of gas can be seen. The lime-water becomes chalky when this gas is bubbled through it. Can you deduce what x is?

X is an acid. The acid reacts with Calcium Carbonate producing carbon dioxide. When this is bubbled through limewater, it produces a fine calcium carbonate precipitate giving a milky appearance to the limewater.


What you see when carbon dioxide is bubbled through calcium hydroxide solution?

You will see a preciptate of Calcium Carbonate [CaCO3] The Calcium Hydroxied is said to turn 'Milky' or 'Chalky' The chalkyness so described is the water insoluble Calcium Carbonate being deposited as it is formed.


What happens when access carbon Di oxide passed through lime water?

Lime water is Ca(OH)2. When CO2 is bubbled, a white precipitate of CaCO3 (calcium carbonate) is formed.


What does carbon dioxide turn limewater to?

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 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 is the compound formed when carbon dioxide is bubbled through limewater?

Calcium carbonate, formula of this: CaCO3


What type of reagent do you use for testing the presence of carbon dioxide. please list all of them...please..?

Bubble gas through limewater (saturated calcium hydroxide solution). The presence of carbon dioxide is indicated by the solution turning milky/cloudy. This is caused by the carbon dioxide and calcium hydroxide reacting to produce calcium carbonate which is insoluble, and is therefore seen as a white precipitate.


How long does it take for lime water to turn milky?

Lime water is calcium hydroxide. When carbon dioxide is bubbled through it forms this precipitate called as calcium carbonate. This doesnt dissole in the water so the lime water bexomes milky.


What happened when soluble carbonate is passed through soluble calcium salt?

the precipitate calcium carbonate (CaCO3) is formed


Why water is turned milky when it is passed through carbon dioxide?

A precipitate of calcium carbonate is formed.
