AIM: To carry out a lab experiment to decompose a carbonate using heat‚ also to carry out appropriate tests for the formation of products as a result of this decomposition. DISSCUSION: Carbonates are decomposed by heat into the corresponding oxides and carbon dioxide. The temperature of decomposition depends upon the activity of the metal; that is to say‚ the more active the metal‚ the more stable is the carbonate. Thus‚ the carbonates of sodium and potassium are stable at the highest temperature

There was a significant main effect of type of lighting on attractiveness of chosen mate‚ F (1‚ 25) = 23.42‚ p <.001‚ partial η² = .48 (See table 1). Results showed that attractiveness score of the chosen mate was significantly higher in bright light (M = 53.44‚ SD = 5.82) than in dim light (M = 47.25‚ SD = 4.49). Table 1.
