Vinegar(Acetic acid) + Baking soda(Sodium hydrogencarbonate)-

Carbon-di-oxide+ other substances

The reaction between carbon-di-oxide and lime water is as follows:

Carbon-di-oxide(CO2)+lime water - Calcium Carbonate+water

When CO2 is passed through lime water calcium carbonate is formed which makes lime water milky.The turning of lime water into milky is a test of carbon-di-oxide.
