Answer:
Carbon dioxide reacts with calcium hydroxide solution to produce a white precipitate of calcium carbonate. Limewater is a solution of calcium hydroxide. If carbon dioxide is bubbled through limewater, the limewater turns milky or cloudy white.

Answer:
You can test the presence of carbon oxide passing the air into lime water.
- If lime water turns milky, it means that air contains carbon dioxide.
- If lime water does not turn milky, it mean that air doesn't contain carbon dioxide.
Here's the chemical reaction between carbon dioxide and lime water:
CO₂ + Ca(OH)₂ => CaCO₃ + H₂O
(Carbon Dioxide) (Limewater) (Calcium Carbonate) (Water)
