Carbon dioxide test
Carbon dioxide test. Montage showing the effect of bubbling carbon dioxide gas through lime water. The lime water is saturated calcium hydroxide solution (Ca(OH)2) which reacts with carbon dioxide (CO2) to precipitate solid calcium carbonate (CaCO3). This turns the lime water cloudy (right) from its initially clear state (left)

EDITORS COMMENTS
This print from Science Photo Library showcases the fascinating process of a carbon dioxide test. The montage captures the transformation that occurs when carbon dioxide gas is bubbled through lime water, which is a saturated calcium hydroxide solution (Ca (OH)2). As the carbon dioxide reacts with the calcium hydroxide, solid calcium carbonate (CaCO3) precipitates and causes a remarkable change in the appearance of the lime water. The left side of the image depicts clear lime water before any reaction takes place. However, on the right side, we witness an astonishing shift as the lime water turns cloudy due to the formation of calcium carbonate. This striking contrast beautifully illustrates how chemical reactions can bring about visible alterations. Set against a black background in a studio setting, this meticulously composed photograph emphasizes every detail of this scientific experiment. The trio of images within this composite allows us to observe each stage of this reaction and appreciate its significance in laboratory settings and school science experiments. With its focus on chemistry and laboratory equipment, this print serves as an educational tool for understanding concepts such as precipitation and chemical changes caused by carbon dioxide. It offers viewers an opportunity to explore these scientific phenomena up close while appreciating their aesthetic appeal.
