∙ 12y agoSome metal carbonates decompose more easily due to their place on the reactivity series, ie the more reactive the metal, the harder it is to decompose e.g. Sodium and Potassium Carbonates are harder to decompose than Lead or Copper carbonates.

∙ 12y agoAll carbonates decompose on heating: examples are sodium carbonate, calcium carbonate, potassium carbonate, uranyl carbonate, magnesium carbonate.
Wiki User
∙ 12y agoBecause some are more rective than others, the ones that are reactive decompose slower because they hod onto there ores.

∙ 11y agoA metal that's an elemental metal (rather than a mixture like brass or solder), can't decompose. It's already in its least complicated state.

What substances are created when calcium carbonate is heated very strongly in an open crucible?
Calcium carbonate thermally decomposes when heated to form calcium oxide powder and carbon dioxide gas. The word equation: calcium carbonate --> calcium oxide + carbon dioxide As a symbol equation: CaCO3 --> CaO + CO2
When Calcium carbonate is heated .?
It decomposes into calcium oxide and carbon dioxide...
What two gases are given off when ammonium carbonate decomposes?
NH3 and CO2
What is the chemical equation for Solid silver carbonate decomposes into solid silver oxide and gaseous carbon dioxide when heated?
silver carbonate decomposes into silver (1) oxide and carbon dioxide Ag2CO3-->Ag2O + CO2 Because both sides are equal you do not have to balance the equation. note: Because silver is a transitional metal you had the choice between silver (3) and silver (1). I decided to choose Silver (1) because that meant that the silver carbonate was completely decomposed and also it is easier to balance the equation.
What happens to the solidity of calcium carbonate is heated?
When calcium carbonate is heated, it breaks down by thermal decomposition to carbon dioxide & calcium oxide (quicklime). Here is the word equation: Calcium carbonate --> Calcium oxide + Carbon dioxide Here is the chemical equation: CaCO3 (s) --> CaO (s) + CO2 (g)
What happens to calcium carbonate when heated?
It decomposes into calcium oxide and carbon dioxide
What does Calcium Carbonate Decomposes To Form?
CaCo3 heated & gives CaO+Co2
What color is copper carbonate when heated?
Copper Carbonate when heated decomposes to give copper oxide and carbon dioxide.
Why does barium carbonate decreases its weight when it is heated?
Because it decomposes to form carbon dioxide and barium oxide.
Why does CuCO3 turns black when heated?
on heating copper carbonate decomposes to cupric oxide which is black in colour.
What happen when sodium carbonate is heated?
It decomposes into Sodium oxide and Carbon dioxide.Na2CO3 --Δ--> Na2O + CO2
When heated a metal carbonate decomposes in to a metal oxide and a?
the metal carbonate decomposes into a metal oxide and carbon dioxide
What are the components of bakingsoda?
Another term for baking soda is sodium hydrogen carbonate or sodium bicarbonate. When it is heated, it decomposes to yield carbon dioxide, water and a carbonate salt.
Ammonium Carbonate heated makes what?
Ammonium Carbonate decomposes to yield Water(H2O), Carbon Dioxide(CO2), and Ammonium(NH4).
What substances are created when calcium carbonate is heated very strongly in an open crucible?
Calcium carbonate thermally decomposes when heated to form calcium oxide powder and carbon dioxide gas. The word equation: calcium carbonate --> calcium oxide + carbon dioxide As a symbol equation: CaCO3 --> CaO + CO2
When Heated a metal carbonate produces what?
Experimentally to prove that, capture the gas and pass it through lime water. If the lime water turns milky then the gas is CO2 . Or an example of equation for decomposition of a metal carbonate is :- MgCO3 + heat ------> MgO + CO2
When sodium Bicarbonate decomposes it produce sodium carbonate and what else?
Sodium bicarbonate decomposes into sodium carbonate, carbon dioxide, and water.
