**Step-by-Step Solution:** 1. **Understanding Lime Water**: Lime water is an aqueous solution of calcium hydroxide (Ca(OH)₂). It is a clear and colorless solution when prepared. 2. **Reaction with Carbon Dioxide**: When carbon dioxide (CO₂) gas is introduced into lime water, a chemical reaction occurs. The carbon dioxide reacts with calcium hydroxide to form calcium carbonate (CaCO₃). \[ \text{Ca(OH)}_2 (aq) + \text{CO}_2 (g) \rightarrow \text{CaCO}_3 (s) + \text{H}_2\text{O} (l) ...
