The first three laws of the Compromise of 1850 were enacted on September 9, 1850. The first of these concerned the State of Texas and organization of the Territory of New Mexico; the second concerned organization of the Territory of Utah; the third concerned admission of California to the Union. The fourth law, enacted September 18, 1850, was the notorious Fugitive Slave Law. The fifth law, enacted September 20, 1850, banned the slave trade from the District of Columbia.
The Compromise of 1850 appeased both North and South in several ways. The South was granted a harsher treatment of fugitive slaves by the North. Both North and South were granted parts of the Texas Territory. At this time, Washington, D.C. still had slaves, but the Compromise of 1850 did away with that practice.
It was the Missouri Compromise of 1820. It put an end (temporarily) of the conflict over the extension of slavery in the northern states: over 36 degree30' it was prohibited to to the states to join the USA as slave states.
It promised the North that California would be free soil.
In exchange for this major concession, the South had to be appeased with the Fugitive Slave Act, where official slave-catchers were employed to hunt down runaways. This law backfired badly, causing Harriet Beecher Stowe to write 'Uncle Tom's Cabin'.
They made the Missouri Compromise and the Compromise of 1850.
Because both North and South were not intimately satisfied on the terms of the compromise and the fire was mouldering under the ashes.
acceptance of popular sovereignty in the New Mexico and Utah territories
well you can say that the Missouri compromise allowed south to have slavery but north couldn't and then all went well until the compromise of 1850 when California got permitted as a free state south got mad and the civil war began. I'm writing a report on this too but includes more.
The Compromise of 1850 briefly dampened the tensions surrounding slavery that existed between the North and the South. It included five different bills.

Basically the Missouri Compromise of 1850 was a fair compromise. One problem for Northern abolitionists was that the Compromise ushered in the Fugitive Slave Act. They were outraged that the new compromise included this law.
The term of the compromise 1850 was a group of five bills, passed September 1850, which defuse a four year confrontion between slave states of the south & free states of the north.

The compromise gave added clout to politicians in the south and increased resentment in the north. Both sides were upset by the compromise.
