Solution

The correct option is C Milkiness, $C a C O_{3}$
The reaction is:

$C a (O H)_{2} + C O_{2} \to C a C O_{3} + H_{2} O$

Lime water is calcium hydroxide. Calcium carbonate is formed when $C O_{2}$ is passed through it. Calcium carbonate is white in colour and insoluble in water, hence the milkiness.
