What else is produced when sodium carbonate decomposes?

Na2CO3 → Na2O +

When sodium carbonate is heated, the other product apart from Na₂O, the other product is Carbon dioxide (CO₂)

Explanation:

When anhydrous sodium carbonate is heated, at around 400° C Carbon dioxide is released. The reaction is

Na₂CO3 → Na₂O + CO₂

the correct answer is b. a strong acid completely dissociates to its ions when dissolved in water. completely dissociates to and ions. a is incorrect because does not fully ionize to and ions and some remain as the compound . c and d are incorrect because, and do not fall into the category of bronsted lowry acids. a bronsted lowry acid is a proton donor and since both molecules do not have a proton to donate they are not bronsted lowry acids. likewise,   if we use the lewis acid definition, they cannot be acids. a lewis acid is an electron pair acceptor. both and have a complete octet so can not accept any electrons which disqualifies them as acids.
