Here are the answers to the questions:
Question 1: The property of acids being tested is the ability to
B. Produce carbon dioxide when it reacts with carbonate compound
Lime water ($\text{Ca(OH)}_2$) is used to test for the presence of carbon dioxide ($\text{CO}_2$). Acids react with carbonate compounds to produce $\text{CO}_2$ gas.
Question 2: What observation will be made in the experiment with lime water?
A. A clear lime water turns milky indicating the production of $\text{CO}_2$ gas
When carbon dioxide gas is bubbled through clear lime water, it reacts to form insoluble calcium carbonate ($\text{CaCO}_3$), which appears as a white precipitate, making the solution milky.
Question 8: Which of the following statement is true about binary compounds?
A. consist of only two elements
A binary compound is defined as a chemical compound that contains exactly two different elements.
