Solution
The correct option is A 1 The colourless salt A is calcium oxalate. It decomposies on heating to form calcium oxide (D) , CO (B) and carbon dioxide (C). Ca2C2O4+Δ−→CaO+CO↑+CO2↑ Calcium oxide dissolves in water to form calcium hydroxide (E). CaO+H2O→Ca(OH)2 Carbon dioxide turns solution of calcium hydroxide milky. Ca(OH)2+CO2→CaCO3+H2O.
