The correct answer is:
$\mathrm{Ca}(\mathrm{OH})_2+\mathrm{Cl}_2 \xrightarrow{\Delta} \mathrm{CaOCl}_2+\mathrm{H}_2 \mathrm{O}$
The chemical formula of bleaching powder is $\mathrm{CaOCl}_2$, so the correct reaction is
$\mathrm{Ca}(\mathrm{OH})_2+\mathrm{Cl}_2 \stackrel{\Delta}{\longrightarrow} \mathrm{CaOCl}_2+\mathrm{H}_2 \mathrm{O}$
$\mathrm{Ca}(\mathrm{OH})_2+\mathrm{Cl}_2 \stackrel{\Delta}{\longrightarrow} \mathrm{CaOCl}_2+\mathrm{H}_2 \mathrm{O}$
