    Lime water is an uncountable liquid used in chemistry to detect carbon dioxide. It contains calcium hydroxide, which turns white in the presence of carbon dioxide, indicating its presence. When carbon dioxide is present, it reacts with the calcium hydroxide in lime water to form calcium carbonate, turning the solution from clear to cloudy white.
