Calculate the residue obtained on strongly heating `2.76 Ag_(2) CO_(3)`.

Explanation

To calculate the residue obtained from strongly heating 2.76 g of \( \text{Ag}_2\text{CO}_3 \), we will follow these steps:

### Step 1: Write the decomposition reaction of \( \text{Ag}_2\text{CO}_3 \)
The decomposition of silver carbonate can be represented as:
\[ \text{2 Ag}_2\text{CO}_3 \rightarrow 4 \text{Ag} + \text{2 CO}_2 + \text{O}_2 \]
This shows that when \( \text{Ag}_2\text{CO}_3 \) is heated, it decomposes to produce silver (Ag), carbon dioxide (CO₂), and oxygen (O₂).
