The balanced equation in a reaction involving the decomposition of calcium carbonate into solid calcium oxide and carbon dioxide gas would be: [tex]CaCO3 (s) ----> CaO (s) + CO2 (g)[/tex]

Equation of reactions

Solid calcium carbonate goes by the chemical formula : CaCO3 (s)

Solid calcium oxide goes by the chemical formula: CaO (s)

Carbon dioxide gas goes by the formula: CO2 (g)

Putting everything together in a single reaction and balancing out the number of atoms on each side of the equation will give;

[tex]CaCO3 (s) ----> CaO (s) + CO2 (g)[/tex]
