What does this question mean
Answer:
when CO2 gas is passed through lime water it turns milky due to the formation of calcium carbonate which formula is CaCO3.
Ca(OH)2+ CO2------ CaCO3
when excess of carbon dioxide is passed through calcium carbonate calcium hydrogen carbonate is formed and solution become colourless.
CaCO3+CO2------ Ca(HCO3)
In order to make the dissolution of the solid compound in water to occur at a faster rate, Samuel could do the following:
1. Break down the solid into tiny particles: breaking down the solid into tiny particles increases the surface area of the solid and thus increase the quantity of the substance that comes in contact with the solvent per time, this leads to a faster dissolution of the solid.
2. Stir the liquid with iron rod: Samuel can increase the dissolution rate of the substance by stirring it continuously with iron rod.
3. Increasing the temperature:Samuel could also increase the rate of dissolution of the substance by increasing the temperature of the water.
