Sodium carbonate decahydrate is the name of the compound Na2CO3·10H2O, because 'deca' means 'ten'.

The term hydrated sodium carbonate is commonly used to encompass the monohydrate (Na2CO3·H2O), the decahydrate and the heptahydrate (Na2CO3·7H2O).

Both the hepta- and the decahydrate are partially transformed into the monohydrate thermonatrite Na2CO3·H2O when left over in dry air.

Anhydrous (no H2O) sodium carbonate (Na2CO3) is formed when heating Na2CO3·H2O or NaHCO3 or Na3H(CO3)2·2H2O (trona) up to 150o-200oC (this is called calcination).
