Exothermis reaction examples of decomposition reaction |
|
Answer» Answer: Yes, just consider the example of most nitrates and explosive compounds in general. After melting (endothermal) and SOMETIMES phase CHANGES (also endothermal), decomposition occurs and is very EXOTHERMIC. This may occur each time the resultant compounds after decomposition are more stable than the INITIAL compound. If your TG ios carried out in air, it can also be a rapid oxidation (like burning) of your sample, indeed PRODUCING both exothermic peak and mass loss. |
