Here are some problems and their answers. I would appreciate if someone could please explain step by step how to get these answers? I need to understand this concept.

The following questions refer to the equilibria: 2 NaHCO3(s) ⇌ Na2CO3(s) + H2O(g) + CO2(g) K(110°C)=0.68

1)If CO2(g) is added to the equilibrium mixture the partial pressure of H2O(g) will: answer: Decrease (how and why??)

2) If the volume of the container is decreased, the amount in grams of sodium carbonate (Na2CO3(s)) will: Answer: decrease (I thought volume only affects gases??)

3)The ΔH of the reaction was measured and determined to be -25 kJ/mole of sodium bicarbonate (NaHCO3). If the reaction were run at 150°C, a possible value for K could be: answer: 0.54

This next question is not involved with the above.

4) What is the pH of the solution after 30 mL of 0.12 M HCl is mixed with 60 mL of 0.12M NaOH? Answer: . 12.60
