What are the products formed in sequence when excess of CO 2 is passed in slaked lime?
Options
- ACaO , CaCO 3
- BCa HCO 3 2 ' CaCO 3
- CCaCO 3 , Ca HCO 3 2
- DCaO , Ca HCO 3 2
Correct answer
C. CaCO 3 , Ca HCO 3 2
Step-by-step solution
Slaked lime is Ca ( OH ) 2 , when it pass through carbon dioxide it form calcium carbonate, but in presence of excess carbon dioxide it forms calcium bicarbonate. Slaked lime → CO 2 Pass CaC O 3 ↓ → Prolonged passage of   CO 2 Ca HCO 3 2
