What does not decompose when it is heated with a Bunsen burner?

Many salts do not decompose when heated.


What does sodium chloride become when heated?

When heated, sodium chloride (table salt) remains as solid salt. When heated to very high temperatures, around 801°C (1474°F), it will melt into a liquid form. Only when it reaches the extreme temperature of 1465°C (2669°F) does it decompose into its constituent elements, sodium and chlorine.


Will calcium chloride give calcium oxide when heated?

No, calcium chloride will not give calcium oxide when heated. Calcium chloride is a salt compound, while calcium oxide is a different compound formed by heating calcium carbonate. Heating calcium chloride will decompose it into calcium chloride and release chlorine gas.


Which will not form water and carbon dioxide when it burns?

Sodium chloride (table salt) will not form water and carbon dioxide when it burns. When sodium chloride is heated, it may decompose into sodium and chlorine, but it does not produce water and carbon dioxide as products.


What does not decompose when heated?

Materials such as glass and ceramics do not decompose when heated because they are not organic compounds and do not break down into simpler substances under high temperature.


What does lithium chlorate decompose to?

Lithium chlorate decomposes when heated to form lithium chloride and oxygen gas. The chemical equation for this reaction is 2LiClO3 -> 2LiCl + 3O2.


What does NaCl decompose?

Sodium chloride is decomposed by electrolysis.


What does potassium chlorate decompose into?

When heated, potassium chlorate decomposes into potassium chloride and oxygen gas. This reaction is often used in chemistry demonstrations to generate oxygen gas.


How can one effectively burn salt?

It is not possible to burn salt because salt is a compound made of sodium and chloride ions, which do not burn. When heated, salt will simply melt or decompose, but it will not catch fire.


What is used to ignite a Bunsen burner?

Carbonates often decompose when heated, forming gases and a residue. Hydrogen carbonates may decompose as well, but different compounds have different ease of decomposition. Aluminum chloride sublimes (changes directly into a gas from the solid state) when heated.


What color does barium chloride become when heated?

Barium chloride is white in its solid form. When heated, it remains white because its color does not change.


What is the balanced equation for potassium chloride when decomposed?
