Do an activity to show that when exes carbon dioxide pass thought lime water the mika is less dessipere
Answers
Answer:
when CO2 gas is passed through lime water it turns milky due to the formation of calcium carbonate which formula is CaCO3. when excess of carbon dioxide is passed through calcium carbonate calcium hydrogen carbonate is formed and solution become colourless
If you pass excess CO2 through lime-water, the CaCO3 reacts with the excess CO2 and water to form calcium hydrogen carbonate or calcium bicarbonate. Calcium bicarbonate is soluble in water and thus the milkiness dissolves in water.
white
Calcium carbonate is considered a soft, nonabrasive filler. Its natural color is white, however, it can be easily colored. It is chemically stable up to 800°C and above this temperature it dissociates into calcium oxide and carbon dioxide.
The reaction is given below
CaO + CO2 --------- CaCO3
When excess carbon dioxide is added
CaCO3 + CO2-----Ca(HCO3)2
