    Sodium bicarbonate on heating decomposes to form sodium carbonate,\[C{{O}_{2}}\]and water. If 0.2 moles of sodium bicarbonate is completely decomposed, how many moles of sodium carbonate is formed?

    A)  0.1                                        

    B)  0.2

    C)  0.05                                      

    D)  0.025

    Correct Answer: A

    Solution :

                    \[\underset{2\,mol}{\mathop{2NaHC{{O}_{3}}}}\,\xrightarrow[{}]{\Delta }\underset{1\,mol}{\mathop{N{{a}_{2}}C{{O}_{3}}}}\,+{{H}_{2}}O+C{{O}_{2}}\] \[\because \]2 mol\[NaHC{{O}_{3}}\]on decomposition gives =1 mol \[N{{a}_{2}}C{{O}_{3}}\] \[\therefore \]0.2 mol\[NaHC{{O}_{3}}\]on decomposition will give                 \[=\frac{1}{2}\times 0.2\] =0.1 mol\[N{{a}_{2}}C{{O}_{3}}\]
