Which is more stable : `Na_(2)CO_(3)` or `CaCO_(3)`?

Text Solution

AI Generated Solution

To determine which compound is more stable between Na₂CO₃ (sodium carbonate) and CaCO₃ (calcium carbonate), we need to analyze the properties of the cations involved and their effect on the stability of the carbonate ion. ### Step-by-Step Solution: 1. **Identify the Cations**: - In Na₂CO₃, the cation is Na⁺ (sodium ion). - In CaCO₃, the cation is Ca²⁺ (calcium ion). ...
