According to Le Chatelier's principle, any disturbance caused in an equilibrium reaction will tend to shift the equilibrium in a direction away from the disturbance.

For example, $CaCO_{3}(s) + CO_{2}(aq) + H_{2}O(l) \rightleftharpoons Ca^{2+}(aq) + 2HCO^{-}_{3}(aq)$

Hence, expression for equilibrium constant will be as follows.

$K_{eq} = \frac{[Ca^{2+}][HCO^{-}_{3}]^{2}}{[CO_{2}][H_{2}O]}$

Since, the concentration for a solid substance is considered as 1 or unity. Therefore, adding or removing a solid will not affect the equilibrium.

Thus, we can conclude that according to Le Châtelier’s Principle, the amount of solid reactant or product present does not have an impact on the equilibrium because the solid does not appear in the equilibrium constant, so adding or removing solid has no effect.
