Solution

Compound A is calcium oxide (commonly known as quick lime). It has the chemical formula CaO. Compound B is calcium hydroxide, commonly known as slaked lime. It has the chemical formula Ca(OH)₂. Compound C is calcium carbonate. It has the chemical formula CaCO₃. Following are the involved chemical reactions:
1) Reaction of calcium oxide and water
CaO + H₂O â†’ Ca(OH)₂
2) Reaction of calcium hydroxide and carbon dioxide
Ca(OH)₂ + CO₂ â†’ CaCO₃ + H₂O
