The thermal decomposition of carbonates typically produces oxides and carbon dioxide gas. Here are some common examples:

1. Calcium Carbonate (CaCO3):
Equation: CaCO3(s) -> CaO(s) + CO2(g)

2. Magnesium Carbonate (MgCO3):
Equation: MgCO3(s) -> MgO(s) + CO2(g)

One common reaction of any metal carbonates is known as thermal decomposition. When metal carbonates are heated, they break down to form the metal oxide and carbon dioxide gas. Here are some examples. The difficulty of this decomposition reaction depends on the reactivity of the metal in the metal carbonate.
