Explanation:

Calcium carbonate will decompose to form carbon dioxide and calcium oxide.

Carbonate compounds will decompose when heated.

Here is the balanced equation for this reaction:

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

Calcium carbonate has a 1:1 ratio because calcium forms a +2 ion and carbonate has a -2 charge.

Calcium oxide must have the formula CaO because calcium forms an ion with a +2 charge and oxide has a -2 charge.

Balanced chemical equation CaCO_3(s) ->CaO(s) + CO_2(g)

In the given question we are asked to write a balanced chemical equation of action of heat on calcium bicarbonate​ .

For this we should know what happen when calcium bicarbonate is heated .

So, when calcium bicarbonate is heated it decomposes to calcium oxide and carbon dioxide .

The chemical equation of this reaction is given by :

CaCO_3(s) ->CaO(s) + CO_2(g)

On comparing all the elements in both sides , we will observe that the equation is already balanced .

Hence , this is the required solution.
