Answer 1) When a strong acid like

reacts with

usually the equilibrium shifts to the right because
As per the Le chatelier's principle "if in any reaction, a dynamic equilibrium is disturbed by changing the any of the conditions, the position of equilibrium moves to counteract the change." So, in the given reaction when

reacts with

it generates carbon dioxide and water as a by product, if we are adding

it will remove some of the

molecule from the reaction mixture, which then tends to shift the equilibrium towards right.
Answer 2) The same would be observed in this case, if we replace

with HCl it will shift the equilibrium to the right as their will be generation of AgCl as the precipitate.
As per the definition of Le Chatelier's principle if we add reactants in the reaction the equilibrium will tend to move towards right, also if we replace the products or remove it then too it will shift the equilibrium towards right. So, in this reaction you are removing

and

ions from the solution.
The loss of electron from an results in the formation of cation represented by the positive charge on the element whereas gaining of electron results in the formation of anion represented by the negative charge on the element.
The alkali earth metal beryllium (
) belongs to the second group of the periodic table. The ground state electronic configuration of
is:
From the electronic configuration it is clear that it has 2 valence electrons in its valence shell (
).
After losing all valence electrons that is 2 electrons from
orbital. The electronic configuration will be:

Since, lose of electron is represented by positive charge on the element symbol. So, the beryllium will have +2 charge on its symbol as
.
Hence, beryllium will have 2+ charge on it after losing all its valence electrons in the chemical reaction.
