Before thermal decomposition, weigh the mass.
Thermally decompose.
Allow to cool
Re-weigh. The difference in the masses is the mass of CO2 released.
Carbon Dioxide
sodium carbonate and carbon dioxide
Carbon Dioxide
In general, the thermal decomposition of a metal carbonate results in the formation of the metal oxide and carbon dioxide. Example: MCO3 ==> MO + CO2
Na2CO3--------Na2O + CO2 Carbon dioxide is released by the thermal decomposition of sodium carbonate.
Carbon Dioxide

It decomposes to Cupric oxide and Carbon dioxide
sodium carbonate and carbon dioxide

Decomposition of calcium carbonate to calcium oxide and carbon dioxide on heating is an important decomposition used in various industries.
In general, the thermal decomposition of a metal carbonate results in the formation of the metal oxide and carbon dioxide. Example: MCO3 ==> MO + CO2
Calcium carbonate --> Calcium oxide + Carbon dioxide Its an example of thermal decomposition.
magnesium oxide, water and carbon dioxide
Na2CO3--------Na2O + CO2 Carbon dioxide is released by the thermal decomposition of sodium carbonate.
the metal carbonate decomposes into a metal oxide and carbon dioxide
Beryllium Carbonate --> Beryllium Oxide + Carbon Dioxide BeCO3(s) --> BeO(s) + CO2(g)
