Did The Missouri Compromise cause the southern states to leave the union?

No. The Compromise allowed the Missouri territory to join the USA as a slave-state. The condition was that there should be no more new slave-states North of the parallel that marked Missouri's Southern border. This represented a clear 'line in the sand' that kept the peace for thirty years, until the admission of California made the Compromise inoperable.


What are three reasons why The Missouri Compromise of 1820 and the compromise of 1850 could be the leading cause to the American civil war?

The Missouri Compromise was not a cause of the war - it was a reasonable deal that delayed hostilities for forty years. The Compromise of 1850 included a provision to toughen-up the Fugitive Slave Act, and this became an emotive issue in the North, especially when Uncle Tom's Cabin was published soon after.

What two compromises made to prevent the civil war?

Missouri Compromise 1820, about the new territories brought in by the Louisiana Purchase - drawing a line in the sand, North of which slavery would be illegal. Compromise of 1850, about the new territories brought in by the victory over Mexico - a scrambled deal, mostly favouring the North and making new slave-states harder to create, so they passed the Fugitive Slave Act to appease the South by cracking down on runaways. There was also a last-minute compromise (Crittenden), early in 1861, to try and avert war. But Lincoln rejected it because it could have allowed new slave-states.

Most of the territories would come into the union as free or slave states?

After the Missouri Compromise of 1820, it was more-or-less balanced - anywhere North of that parallel would be free soil, and anywhere South was open to slavery. After the Compromise of 1850, it became more difficult to create new slave-states, and Congress had to try to appease the South. This did not work in the end, and war was inevitable.
