This article is linked under the "keys not working" section of a trouble shooting guide (Acer Aspire One 722 (P1VE6) Troubleshooting).

It's quite unlikely that just replacing the keycap will make the corresponding keystrokes register again. That would most likely require replacing the underlying microswitch, which is basically impossible.
