No. Both sides were equally dissatisfied. Ironically, this kept the situation balanced for thirty years.

This decision nullified the Missouri compromise?
The Missouri Compromise was nullified by the new Compromise of 1850 - caused by the admission of California, which extended a long way on either side of the Missouri line, and rendered it obsolete.
What was the impact of the civil war after The Missouri Compromise?
There was no Civil War while the Missouri Compromise was in force. It kept the peace for thirty years. It was the debate over the admission of California, following the Mexican War, that made the Missouri Compromise inoperable (because the new state extended so far on either side of the line) and a new Compromise had to be worked out. This one did not last.
The case that invalidated Missouri compromise?

What was the compromise in The Missouri Compromise?
This was meant to settle the question of slavery in the Western territories that were applying to become states of the Union. It was agreed to draw one line of latitude, North of which slavery would be illegal. The line was the Southern border of Missouri. The Compromise worked well enough for thirty years, until after the Mexican war, when the future of California was being debated. The new state would extend so far either side of the Missouri line that both sides claimed it. So the Compromise broke down, and had to be replaced by another which did not last. It has often been commented that if there could have been two states, Northern California and Southern California, meeting on the Missouri line, the Civil War could have been avoided.

Could the US have avoided the Civil War by more compromises such as the Missouri Compromise?
They could have averted a war by dividing California into two States - North and South California - joining at the parallel of the Missouri Compromise. Without that, the new state of California extended so far either side of the line, that both sides claimed it. That's why the Missouri Compromise had to be abandoned in favour of a new compromise (1850) which didn't last. The final trigger that started the Civil War was Lincoln's rejecton of the last attempted compromise (Crittenden) because it would have allowed some extension of slavery.
How did the compromise 1850 start?
After the Mexican War, California was admitted to the Union as one big state that extended so far on either side of the Missouri Line that both sides claimed it. To get California admitted as free soil, Congress had to repeal the Missouri Compromise and appease the South with a new deal.
How the South felt about the Missouri Compromise?
Both sides were equally uneasy about it, but this managed to hold the balance for about thirty years, until the future of California came to be decided. If there had been two states of North and South California, then war could probably have been avoided. But the vast new state extended too far on either side of the Missouri line for the Compromise to be practical, and a new Compromise had to be worked out. This one did not last.
What was the border between slave and free territories west of the Mississippi?
The line of latitude that corresponded with Missouri's Southern border. That was the Missouri Compromise of 1820, which kept the peace for thirty years, until the admission of California, which extended too far either side of the line. This led to the Compromise of 1850 - a new deal, where there was no single line of demarcation.
Why wasn't the north and the south able to compromise over their differences in 1861?
They did - the Missouri Compromise. This lasted thirty years, and was only rendered impractical by the admission of California, a state that extended so far on either side of the Missouri line that both sides claimed it. If only California could have been admitted as two separate states - North and South - there needn't have been a Civil War. The Missouri Compromise was very sensible, and deserved to last.
What did the compromise solve the issue of?
It didn't solve any. The Admission of California as a state of the Union rendered the Missouri Compromise unworkable, as this huge territory extended too far on either side of the Missouri line. This meant that the Missouri Compromise had to be replaced by a new one, and concessions had to be made to the South, in order for them allow California to be free soil. That is how the Fugitive Slave Act was passed - allowing official slave-catchers to hunt down runaways - and this aroused huge opposition in the North. It was the beginning of a decade when the debate rapidly over-heated and led to war.
