copper is less thermally stable compared to sodium. the charge of copper is 2+, which is higher than sodium, which has only one nuclear charge. hence, copper has more polarization compared to sodium ion, making it more distorted and unstable.

How did surface area affect the rate of sodium carbonate decomposition?
it makes it decompose faster than usual
Copper sulfate and sodium carbonate physical or chemical change?
it is a chemical change Sodium carbonate + Copper sulfate react to make Sodium sulfate + Copper carbonate
Does sodium carbonate decompose when heated by a Bunsen?
no
Aluminum carbonate when heated decomposes?
Copper(II) carbonate (green copper caebonate): desintegrates into solid black copper(II) oxide and gaseous carbon dioxide. CuCO3 --[heat]--> CuOsolid + CO2,gas
Does sodium carbonate decompose when heated?
Yes. While they are very similar compounds, potassium carbonate contains potassium while sodium carbonate contains sodium. Their formulas are K2CO3 and Na2CO3 respective. Sodium and potassium are separate, albeit similar elements.

Does sodium carbonate decompose when heated by a Bunsen?
no
Why does copper sulphate and sodium carbonate mixed together turn green?
Copper sulfate reacts with sodium carbonate to produce sodium sulfate and copper carbonate. (CuSO4 + Na2CO3 --> Na2SO4 + CuCO3) Copper carbonate is bluish green in color.
What are the effects of heat on sodium carbonate?
sodium oxide, carbon dioxide and water 2nd answer: there will be no effect on sodium carbonate if it is heated as sodium carbonate will not be decompose upon heating.
What kind of precipitate forms from copper chloride and sodium carbonate?
Copper carbonate would precipitate if you combined solutions of copper (II) chloride and sodium carbonate.
What do bicarbonates decompose into when added to acids?
Sodium carbonate
Aluminum carbonate when heated decomposes?
Copper(II) carbonate (green copper caebonate): desintegrates into solid black copper(II) oxide and gaseous carbon dioxide. CuCO3 --[heat]--> CuOsolid + CO2,gas
Why does sodium carbonate not decompose when heated using?
Sodium carbonate is easily decomposed by heating: Na2CO3----------Na2O + CO2
What is the precipitate of copper sulphate and sodium carbonate?
The copper(III) carbonate is a precipitate.
Why does sodium carbonate not decompose when using a Bunsen burner?
because its a single, stable element. its not like copper carbonate, which is a compound of more that one element; here these elements can break apart
Name a metal carbonate that does not decompose when heated with a Bunsen burner flame?
Sodium Carbonate
