Question

Example of thermal decomposition.​

Answer 1

Answer:

Thermal decomposition reactions are those reactions which break up or decompose on heating to form many products. This is represented by a general formula format:

Zinc carbonate on heating decomposes to form Zinc oxide and carbon dioxide.

Answer 2

Explanation:

Example of thermal decomposition.

$\bf\huge{\underline{\red{ANSWER}}}$

Some compounds break down when heated, forming two or more products from one reactant. This type of reaction is called thermal decomposition.

Many metal carbonates can take part in thermal decomposition reactions. For example, copper carbonate breaks down easily when it is heated:

copper carbonate → copper oxide + carbon dioxide

CuCO3 → CuO + CO2

Copper carbonate is green and copper oxide is black. You can see a colour change from green to black during the reaction. The carbon dioxide produced can be detected using limewater, which turns milky.
