Carbon Dioxide.
Limestone is an impure form of Calcium Carbonate. Reacting with ethanoic acid (acetic acid) produces Calcium Ethanoate water and carbon dioxide.
Calcium Carbonate + Ethanoic Acid = Calcium Ethanoate +
Water + Carbon Dioxide.
CaCO3 + 2CH3COOH = Ca(CH3COO)2 + H2O + CO2
NB 1. Grammatically, you would start a sentence with a capital letter.' At the end of the sentence a 'full stop' and a 'question mark' is incorrect. When using a 'question mark' the 'dot' of the 'question mark' acts as the 'full stop'. Your text should read
'Which ......react?' My quotation marks are to indicate it is your text.

Any Acid + Any carbonate (this includes limestone) gives you a salt + carbon dioxide + water.
CO2 is the only gas that will turn limewater milky.

Carbon dioxide, to test it you can put a lit match over the test tube and you should see the match stop burning

Limestone is calcite (CaCO3)
so:
2CH3COOH + CaCO3 --> Ca(CH3COO)2 + CO2 + H20
The gas is carbon dioxide

carbon dioxide I think. You'd see gassy bubbles rising.
