no of moles of NaOH = molarity * volume in L

                                   = 0.1*0.002   = 0.0002 moles

   NaOH ----------> Na+ + OH-

                                        0.0002 moles

      [OH-]   = no of moles/volume in L

                 = 0.0002/1.002   = 0.0002M

no of moles of CaCl2 = molarity * volume in L

                                     = 0.8*1 = 0.8moles

CaCl2 -------------> Ca+2 + 2Cl-

0.8 moles                0.8 moles

[Ca+2]   = no of moles/volume in L

             = 0.8/1.002   = 0.798 M

Qsp = [Ca+2][OH-]2

          = 0.798*(0.0002)2 = 3.2*10-8

ksp of Ca(OH)2 = 5.02*10-8

Ksp>Qsp will not form precipitate

Precipitation will not occur.
