How can you tell from the equation ${\mathrm{K}}_2{\mathrm{CO}}_3\left(\mathrm{aq}\right)+{\mathrm{H}}_2\mathrm{O}\left(\mathrm{l}\right)+{\mathrm{CO}}_2\left(\mathrm{g}\right)\rightleftharpoons 2{\mathrm{KHCO}}_3\left(\mathrm{aq}\right)$ that the reaction above is reversible?
 

What happens when potassium hydrogencarbonate is heated?

Why the addition of carbon dioxide to potassium carbonate is a good/economical reaction to use to remove carbon dioxide produced in exhaust gases?
