The reaction you've described involves several steps of chemical transformation. Here is a summary of the reactions involved:
Calcium carbonate CaCO3CaCO3CaCO3 is decomposed to form calcium oxide CaOCaOCaO.Calcium oxide CaOCaOCaO reacts with carbon to form calcium carbide CaC2CaC2CaC2.Calcium carbide CaC2CaC2CaC2 reacts with water to produce acetylene gas C2H2C2H2C2H2.Acetylene gas C2H2C2H2C2H2 undergoes a series of reactions to form vinyl chloride CH2=CHClCH2=CHClCH2=CHCl.Vinyl chloride CH2=CHClCH2=CHClCH2=CHCl polymerizes to form polyvinyl chloride −CH2−CH−-CH2-CH-−CH2−CH−n.Chlorine gas Cl2Cl2Cl2 is then used as a reactant in the polymerization process.
Overall, this reaction sequence involves the conversion of calcium carbonate to polyvinyl chloride through a series of chemical reactions.
