`SO_(2)` behaves with lime water similar to `CO_(2)`. Explain why ?

Text Solution

AI Generated Solution

To explain why sulfur dioxide (SO₂) behaves similarly to carbon dioxide (CO₂) when reacting with lime water, we can follow these steps: ### Step 1: Understanding Lime Water Lime water is a dilute solution of calcium hydroxide (Ca(OH)₂). It is commonly used to test for the presence of carbon dioxide. ### Step 2: Reaction of CO₂ with Lime Water When carbon dioxide is bubbled through lime water, it reacts to form calcium carbonate (CaCO₃), which is insoluble in water. The reaction can be represented as: \[ ...

Why does CO_(2) turn lime water milky ?

CO_(2) is passed through lime water in excess .

SO_(2) and CO_(2) both turn lime water (X) milky, SO_(2) also turns K_(2)Cr_(2)O_(7)//H^(+) (Y) green while O_(2) is soluble in pyrogallol (Z) turning it black. These gases are to be detected in order by using these reagents. The order is:

the solubility of CO_(2) in water decreases with increases in temperature . Explain.

NaOH behaves as a base while Zn(OH)_(2) is amphoteric why ?

SO_(2) , dissolves in water to form an acidic solution. Explain.

Statement-1: When CO_(2) is passed through lime water, it first turns milky and then the solution beocmes clear when the passage of CO_(2) is continued. Statement-2: The milkiness is due to the formation of insoluble CaCO_(3) which then changes to soluble Ca(HCO_(3))_(2) when excess of CO_(2) is present.
