It was found that the two-parameter esták-Berggren (SB) autocatalytic model best describes the NaHCO3 decomposition process with the conversion function f(α)=α0.18(1-α)1.19. It was also concluded that the calculated density distribution functions of the apparent activation energies (ddfE a '...
A thermal decomposition reaction occurs when heat is applied to a compound causing it to decompose (break down) into multiple different chemical substances. An example is whenbaking soda (sodium bicarbonate) is heated.2NaHCO3(s)→CO2(g)+H2O(g)+Na2CO3(s) What happens thermal decomposition? Ther...
The thermal decomposition of sodium bicarbonate (NaHCO3) was studied under different atmospheres (dry nitrogen, air, and carbon dioxide), with various heating rates in order to characterize the substance. Various non-isothermal methods of kinetic analysis were employed in estimating the Arrhenius ...
