If calcium carbonate is heated in a closed container, it will decompose, forming calcium oxide and carbon dioxide. Calcium oxide and carbon dioxide can recombine to form calcium carbonate.

After some time, a position is reached where calcium carbonate is decomposing, and calcium oxide and carbon dioxide are recombining at the same rate.

What is this position called?
