Glacial melt water can appear milky due to the presence of finely ground rock particles and sediment called glacial flour. When glaciers move, they grind against rocks and create this fine sediment, which is suspended in the meltwater. The suspended particles scatter light, giving the water a milky appearance.

Which gas makes lime water milky?
stable amounts of glucose iodine does this.
When held in suspension in glacial streams and lakes the refraction of light by makes the water appear blue?
The suspended material is rock-flour - very fine particles arising from the grinding action of rock-on-rock under the moving glacier. Do not drink it!
What is the effect carbon dioxide in lime water?
Lime water turns milky when carbon dioxide is added to it.Lime water also turns into Calcium carbonate (Limestone) solution
What happens to the lime water as carbon dioxide mixes?
The lime water turns milky or cloudy as carbon dioxide mixes with it. This is due to the formation of calcium carbonate, a white precipitate, which makes the lime water appear cloudy.
Is milky water a colloid?
Yes, it is.
Why when rivers receive water from glacial meltwater appear milky blue in color?
This water has a lot of rocks from the glacier suspended in the water causing it to be milky instead of clear.
Which air makes the lime water milky?
Carbondioxide
What should you do if your pool water is very milky and shocking makes it more milky but the levels are good?

What makes transmission fluid pink and milky?
Water or antifreeze.
How did light travel in a milky water?
Light in milky water can scatter due to the particles in suspension, causing it to disperse and appear diffused. This scattering can reduce the clarity and brightness of light passing through the milky water.

Can milky water kill fish?
Milky water should tell you its time for a water change!
What phenomenon makes objects to appear to bend in water?
refraction of light
How does the carbon dioxide from organisms turns lime water milky?
Carbon dioxide reacts with the calcium hydroxide water, forming CaCO3 which is insoluble and forms a white precipitate, which makes it appear milky. Ca2+ + 2 OH- + CO2,gas --> CaCO3,precip. + H2O On further addition of carbon dioxide it clears up again: CaCO3,precip. + H2O + CO2,gas --> Ca2+ + 2HCO3- , which both are soluble ions.
Which phenomenon makes objects appear to bend in water?
Refraction is the phenomenon that makes objects appear to bend when viewed through water. This occurs because light rays change speed and direction as they pass from one medium (such as air) to another (such as water), causing the object to appear distorted.
