Question 12

Formally, chalk or calcium carbonate is insoluble in water but a small amount of it is actually in equilibrium between a dissolved state in water and an insoluble phase: $\mathrm{CaCO_3(s)\rightleftharpoons Ca^{2+}(aq)\quad CO_3^{2-}(aq)}$ Which of the following will cause the dissolution of more $\mathrm{CaCO_3}$ in water?
  1. Adding some acid
  2. Adding some base
  3. Adding $\mathrm{Na_2CO_3}$
  4. Decreasing the amount of solid chalk
