The less reactive a metal is it breaks down faster. Explain the hypothesis using scientific ideas: The metal carbonate which is lower in the reactivity series such as copper can thermally decompose much faster because it is the least reactive metal so its an unstable carbonate and the bonds are much weaker. So the metal that is
