Question

what is observed when carbon dioxide gas is passed through lime water for a short duration

Answer 1

Hey, mate here is your answer✌✌》》

i) For short duration:

When calcium hydroxide(lime water) solution reacts with carbon dioxide gas,the Limewater turns milky due to the formation of a white precipitate of calcium carbonate (CaCO3) which is insoluble in water.

Ca(OH)2(aq) + CO2(g) ------> CaCO3 (s) + H2O(l)


ii) for long duration:
When excess of carbon dioxide gas is passed through lime water then the white precipitate calcium carbonate formed first dissolves due  to the formation of a soluble salt calcium hydrogen carbonate (Ca(HCO3)2, and the Solution becomes clear again.

CaCO3 (s) + H2O(l) + CO2(g) ------> Ca(HCO3)2.
