Bicarbonate will almost entirely get converted to the more stable carbonate with the liberation of carbon dioxide
This reaction may be represented as - 2Na2HCO3 + heat = 2Na2CO3 + H2O + CO2
Hope you understand

Here's your answer :
_______________________________________
When Sodium Bicarbonate (NaHCO₃) is strongly heated, it decomposes to form anhydrous sodium carbonate (Na₂CO₃).
The following reaction takes place :
2NaHCO₃ (s) + heat ⇒ Na₂CO₃ (s) + CO₂ (g) ↑ + H₂O (g) ↑
