Solution

The correct options are
A $A = C a (O H)_{2}$
B $B = N H_{4} H C O_{3}$
C $E = C a C l_{2}$
Compound A is calcium hydroxide
$C a O + H_{2} O \to C a (O H)_{2}$
Compound B is ammonium hydrogen carbonate.
$C O_{2} + N H_{3} + H_{2} O \to N H_{4} H C O_{3}$
Compound E is calcium chloride.
$2 N H_{4} C l + C a (O H)_{2} \to C a C l_{2} + 2 H_{2} O + 2 N H_{3}$
Compound C is sodium carbonate.
$2 N a H C O_{3} 250^{o} C - -- \to N a_{2} C O_{3} + H_{2} O + C O_{2}$
