Arul,

I have some experience of synchronous CDC in 9i.  Not sure whether its
exactly the same in 10g but here are some comments: -

I think that would be a bad idea.  There is an ALTER_CHANGE_TABLE
procedure in the DBMS_LOGMNR_CDC_PUBLISH package for this purpose.

It creates the change table with one partition.  I think that it messes
around with the partitions when running the PURGE procedure.
