The chemical reactions shown represent the decomposition of calcium carbonate (CaCO3) into calcium oxide (CaO), calcium hydroxide (Ca(OH)2), calcium bicarbonate (Ca(HCO3)2), and carbon dioxide (CO2). This process occurs through a series of reactions when calcium carbonate is heated or subjected to certain conditions.
