Na2CO3 => 2(Na^+) + 1(CO3^-2)
The CO3^-2 is the common ion and addition of more CO3^-2 will overload the PRODUCT side causing the equilibrium to shift left to remove the excess and re-establish a new equilibrium.
Consider the following system at equilibrium.
CaCO3(s) mc032-1.jpg Ca2+(aq) + CO32–(aq)
The addition of which compound will cause a shift in equilibrium because of a common ion effect?
CCl4
CO2
CuSO4
Na2CO3
