There is loss in weight when mixture of `Li_(2)CO_(3)` and `Na_(2)CO_(3).10H_(2)O` is heated strongly. This loss is due to:

A

`Li_(2)CO_(3)`

B

`Na_(2)CO_(3).10H_(2)O`

C

Both (1)and(2)

D

None of these

Text Solution

Verified by Experts

The correct Answer is:
3
`Li_(2)CO_(3)` on strong heating loses weights due to release of `CO_(2)` and its subsequent conversion into `Li_(2)O`
`Na_(2)CO_(3).10H_(2)O` also loses weight but only due to release of water of crystallization.
