  1. it sounds like you are being led into expecting a double replacement reaction:

    NaOH & CaCO3 --> Na2CO3 & Ca(OH)2

    however these reactions work when you can form a more stable material. Ca(OH)2 is not more stable than CaCO3, & both sodium compound dissociate so easily into ions in the solution.

    I would expect no reaction to occur
