QUESTION:

Consider the following equilibrium reaction in a closed container:

\(\mathrm{CaCO}_{3}(s)\ \leftrightharpoons\ \mathrm{CaO}(s)+\mathrm{CO}_{2}(g)\)

What will happen if (a) the volume is increased; (b) some CaO is added to the mixture; (c) some \(\mathrm{CaCO}_{3}\) is removed; (d) some \(\mathrm{CO}_{2}\) is added to the mixture; (e) a few drops of a NaOH solution are added to the mixture; (f) a few drops of a HCl solution are added to the mixture (ignore the reaction between \(\mathrm{CO}_{2}\) and water); (g) temperature is increased?
