Answer:
Quick Lime or Calcium Oxide
Formula: CaO
Explanation:
Calcium Oxide, commonly known as quick lime in water is used for white washing. It's formula is CaO.
When it is dissolved in water, it forms calcium hydroxide and when this reacts with carbon-dioxide to form a white layer of calcium carbonate on it.
2Ca + O₂ ----> 2CaO
CaO + H₂O -----> Ca(OH)₂
Ca(OH)₂ + CO₂ -----> CaCO₃ + H₂O
