why carbonates of group IA are more thermly stable then those of group II A

Carbonates are decomposed to carbon dioxide and oxide ion on heating. Whereas bicarbonates decomposed into carbonates water and carbon dioxide
The thermal stability of group 1 and 2 increases down the group as the polarizing power decreases
Due to same reason carbonates of group 1 is more stable than group 2
Small and highly charged metal ions possess more polarizing power and hence facilities the decomposition of carbonate into carbon dioxide and oxide ions
