Detailed information about the equation: The chemical equation illustrates the decomposition process of magnesium phosphate (Mg3(PO4)2) when it is heated, yielding products which are magnesium oxide (MgO), phosphorus pentoxide (P2O5), and oxygen (O2).
-
Reaction conditions: The reaction occurs when there is sufficient high temperature to decompose magnesium phosphate.
-
Reaction process: When heated to high temperatures, magnesium phosphate decomposes into magnesium oxide, phosphorus pentoxide, and oxygen.
-
Occurring phenomena: When the reaction takes place, we can observe the phenomena of boiling, the initial solid substance transforms into a gas, and new solid compounds are formed.
