Ca(OH)2 + CO2 gives calcium carbonate and water
calcium carbonate pls water plus co2 give calcium hydrogen carbonate which is soluble in water and the solution turns colourless
in the first case since calcium carbonate is formed it turns the sol. milky

jot37: how
2ManasSharma1: When carbon dioxide is passed through lime water, it turns milky or turbid due to the formation of calcium carbonate which is insoluble in water. However if excess carbon dioxide is allowed to pass, the turbidity disappears due to the formation of calcium bicarbonate which is soluble inwater.

Answer:

a) When the limited supply of Co2 is passed through lime water- it reacts and forms calcium carbonate which is insoluble in water and thereby the solution becomes turbid or forms a milky white precipitate.

The reaction is given as: Ca(OH)2(aq) + CO2(g) -----> CaCO3(s) + H2O

(b) When Co2 is passed through lime water in excess, the turbidity disappears as calcium bicarbonate gets formed which is soluble in water and hence a clear solution is observed.

The reaction is given as: CaCO3(s) + H2O(l) + CO2(g) ------> Ca(HCO3)2(aq).
