Answer:
Hello
Explanation:
Resultant carbon dioxide passed through limewater in the right tube, producing a milky solution due to precipitation of the insoluble suspension of calcium carbonate:
Ca(OH)2(aq) + CO2(g) → CaCO3(s) + H2O
The milkiness disappears since calcium bicarbonate is water-soluble.
