News from Mathnasium of Northside San Antonio. Pricing Change. I hope your students have had a great start to the school year. As the 1st six week grading period wraps up, you may be considering enrollment options at Mathnasium.
Lime water is a solution of calcium hydroxide (slaked lime). When carbon dioxide is bubbled through it, a solid precipitate of calcium carbonate is formed. Calcium carbonate is chalk or limestone, and it is this that makes the lime water cloudy. calcium hydroxide + carbon dioxide calcium carbonate + water.hen carbon dioxide is bubbled through it, a solid precipitate of calcium carbonate is formed.

Lime water is nothing but a solution of Calcium oxide in water. Calcium oxide reacts exothermically with water to form calcium hydroxide. The solution of Calcium Hydroxide is initially clear. However, due to reaction with atmospheric carbon dioxide, soluble Calcium Hydroxide gets converted to insoluble calcium carbonate.As a result the solution appears cloudy.Similar result is obtained if carbon dioxide is bubbled for a short time through lime water.owever, due to reaction with atmospheric carbon dioxide, soluble Calcium Hydroxide gets converted to insoluble calcium carbonate.
