Solution

The correct option is C

Hydrogen


Calcium reacts with water to form calcium oxide with the evolution of hydrogen gas.

Ca(s) + H2O(i) → CaO(s) + H2(g)

The gas evolved can be shown as hydrogen by bringing a burning candle near the mouth of the boiling tube, the gas catches fire and burns with a pop sound.

The correct answer is C.
