Question 56

When solid sodium hydrogencarbonate (NaHCO3\text{NaHCO}_3NaHCO3​) is heated, it undergoes thermal decomposition to produce solid sodium carbonate (Na2CO3\text{Na}_2\text{CO}_3Na2​CO3​), carbon dioxide gas (CO2\text{CO}_2CO2​), and water vapour (H2O\text{H}_2\text{O}H2​O).

Write the balanced chemical equation for this reaction.
