Answer:
The thermal decomposition of calcium carbonate (X) gives calcium oxide and carbon dioxide.
CaCO3(X)→CaO+CO2
The hydrolysis of calcium oxide gives calcium hydroxide (Y).
CaO+H2O→Ca(OH)2(Y)
Calcium hydroxide reacts with carbon dioxide to form soluble bicarbonate (Z).
Ca(OH)2(Y)+2CO2→Ca(HCO3)2(Z)
On boiling, calcium bicarbonate decomposes to form calcium carbonate, water and carbon dioxide.
Ca(HCO3)2(Z)BoilingCaCO3(X)+H2O+CO2
