Lime water turns milky when you pass carbon dioxide through it because a reaction that produces a white precipitatetakes place.
Lime water is obtained by slacking calcium oxide, CaO or quicklime, to give a solution of calcium hydroxide, Ca(OH)2.
CaO(s)+H2O(l)→Ca(OH)2(aq)
When you pass carbon dioxide through this solution, the two compounds, CO2and Ca(OH)2, will react to produce calcium carbonate, CaCO3, which is an insoluble white solid that precipitates out of the solution.
