Detailed information about the chemical equation:
-
Reaction conditions:
- The thermal decomposition reaction of calcium carbonate to form calcium oxide and carbon dioxide occurs when the temperature reaches about 800 – 900 degrees Celsius.
-
Reaction process:
-
Phenomena that occur:
- When heating calcium carbonate, this white solid will gradually disappear and be replaced by a new compound, also white – calcium oxide.
- At the same time, gas rises from the crucible, which is carbon dioxide gas.
