What will happen when CaO is added to the decomposition reaction of CaCO3 at equilibrium?

Answers

Answered by DrBob222
The decomposition is CaCO3 ==> CaO + CO2
So if you add CaO to this reaction at equilibrium, the reaction will shift to the left which will increase the amout of solid CaCO3 and decrease the amount of CO2 at equilibrium.
