Magnesium carbonate when heated?

Answer 1

if mixed with air it explodes with a bus off light i did it in science last week 31/10/08 stefan rabicano

Answer 2

When magnesium carbonate is heated, it decomposes into magnesium oxide and carbon dioxide gas. This reaction is a thermal decomposition reaction that occurs at high temperatures. The magnesium oxide produced is a white solid, while the carbon dioxide gas is released into the air.

Answer 3

it burns with a white light that is so bright its best not to look at it :O

Answer 4

Calcium Carbonate ---on heating---> Calcium Oxide + Carbon Dioxide

CaCO3 ---on heating---> CaO + CO2

Answer 5

A metal oxide and Carbon Dioxide. e.g When you Burn Copper Carbonate you get Copper Oxide And Carbon dioxide.

Answer 6

When magnesium carbonate is heated you will get magnesium oxide.

Answer 7

Carbon dioxide

MgCO3 ----------heating in air --------MgO + CO2

Answer 8

At high temperature magnesium carbonate is dissociated in magnesium oxide and carbon dioxide.

Answer 9

Magnesium oxide + carbon dioxide

Answer 10

Magnesium oxide :)
