Solution

The equilibrium reaction is as given below:

CaCO3(s)CaO(s)+CO2(g),

The equilibrium constant is K=109 at 300K.

The expression for the equilibrium constant is K=pco2=109

Since calcium carbonate and carbon dioxide are solids, they do no appear in the equilibrium constant expression.

Hence, x is 9.
