The Missouri Compromise of 1850 was an act of the US Congress in an effort to keep free and slave states in balance. The compromise itself was never intended to abolish slavery. That issue was not on the table. What strengthened the institution of slavery was a bill then a law called the Fugitive Slave Act. This was part of the 1850 compromise. This law was designed to have escaped slaves returned to their plantations. It offered rewards for complying, and punishments for not complying.By passing this law, the US Congress and the US presidency was in fact saying that slavery could continue to exist.
How did the compromise of 1850 and the kansas Nebraska act different?
The compromise of 1850 revisits the long time argument concerning which states should be free and which states should be able to have slaves. Prior to that (and the Kansas Nebraska Act) the Missouri Compromise of 1820 had established a sort of line to divide all the slave states from the free. The Kansas Nebraska act had undone all the effort put into the Missouri Compromise and it allowed for attention so shift back to the issue of slavery. The Missouri Compromise had basically delayed that issue and the Kansas Nebraska Act and The Compromise of 1850 touched up on an increasingly sensitive topic which fuels the first sparks which lead to the Civil War.

Which territories were affected by the compromise of 1850 and how?
The Missouri Compromise of 1850 affected Kansas & Nebraska territories. The Compromise was an extension of the one made in 1820. The idea behind the compromises was to maintain the balance of free states and slave states. Now the statehood of Kansas & Nebraska came into the mix. The consensus of Congress was that left to themselves, the people of Kansas would follow the lead of Missouri and vote to become a slave state. Also, that the people of Nebraska would vote for a "free state". Later events, such as a major conflict in Kansas & the soon to come Civil War would send the compromises into a free fall.
