The three reactions below are all at equilbrium simultaneously in solution.
Ca2+(aq) + C2O42-(aq) = CaC2O4(s)
H2C2O4(aq) = H+(aq) + HC2O4-(aq)
HC2O4-(aq) = H+(aq) + C2O42-(aq)
If sodium hydroxide is added to this solution, would you expect to see more or less of the precipitate (CaC2O4) formed in the solution? Explain your reasoning by showign the effect of the addition of sodium hydroxided on the equilibrium for the reaction.
