A Metal compound X reacts with dilute hydrochloric acid to produce effervescence. The gas evolved turns lime water milky.Write two balanced chemical equation for the reaction if one of the compounds formed is calcium chloride.

Hey mate! Here is ur answer along with analysis of the question.
Explanation:
according to the question,
X + HCl ➡️ CaCl2 + CO2
The gas thet gives effervescence as well as thet turns lime water milky is carbon dioxide.
Here, there is H in HCl and O in the metal compound (we can predict this as there is CO2) . Hence H20 is also given as product in the reaction.
usually, H2O and CO2 are released as products together along with the respective metal salt during the reaction between a metal carbonate and acid. Hence we can conclude that the metal compound is calcium carbonate (CaCO3).
The equations are as follows:
CaCO3 + HCl ➡️ CaCl2 + CO2 + H2O.
CaCO3 + HCl ➡️ CaCl2 + CO2 + H2O.CO2 + Ca(OH)2 ➡️ CaCO3.
Hope this helps u...❤️

Answer:
1. CaCO3 + HCl ➡️ CaCl2 + CO2 +H2O
2.CaCO3 + HCl ➡️ CaCl2 + CO2 + H2O. CO2 +Ca(OH)2 ➡️ CaCO3
