When a single compound breaks down into two or more compounds or elements in a chemical reaction then it is known as decomposition reaction.

The chemical symbol for sodium carbonate is
Na_2CO_3.

The decomposition of sodium carbonate is:


Na_2CO_3\rightarrow Na_2O+ CO_2

The decomposition of sodium bicarbonate,
Na_2CO_3 will result in the formation of sodium oxide,
Na_2O and carbon dioxide,
CO_2.

Hence, carbon dioxide,
CO_2 will produce with sodium oxide,
Na_2O on decomposition of
Na_2CO_3.
