This is a long answer type question as classified in NCERT Exemplar
Compound A reacts with water to form compound B. So, the compound A is calcium oxide. When water is added to calcium oxide, calcium hydroxide is formed. It is lime water. The compound gives a milky appearance which is compound C. The compound C is calcium carbonate. On passing, excess carbon dioxide milkiness disappears due to the formation of compound D. The compound is calcium hydrogen carbonate. The reactions are as follows:
CaO+H2O→Ca (OH)2
Ca (OH)2+CO2→CaCO3
Ca (OH)2+CO2+H2O→Ca (HCO3)2
