Why does sodium carbonate not decompose when heated using a Bunsen burner?
Sodium carbonate does decompose when heated, it undergoes thermal decomposition to form sodium oxide (Na2O), carbon dioxide (CO2), and water (H2O). However, the decomposition of sodium carbonate is not easily noticeable when using a Bunsen burner as the high temperature and rapid combustion of the gas can mask the decomposition reaction.
