Calcium carbonate + heat ---->

Thanks!

Usually when you provide A LOT of heat to something it will decompose.

In your case Ag2O will decompose to Ag metal, and Calcium carbonate will decompose to calcium oxide:

2Ag2O(s) --> 4Ag(s) + O2(g)

CaCO3(s) --> CaO(s) + CO2(g)

silver oxide?
Ag2O,there's some sorta reduction reaction that you do in a combustion tube like the experiment with copper(ii) oxide,you'll get pure silver and oxygen because silver is unreactive,

calcium carbonate,
decomposed to metal oxide and carbon dioxide gas only potassium and sodium carbonate doesn't decompose.mercury,silver and gold will decompose into pure metals,carbon dioxide and oxygen

Calcium carbonate + heat

the silver tarnishes.
