Asked by Kyson

Magnesia (MgO(s)) is used for fire brick, crucibles and furnace linings because of its high melting point. It is produced by decomposing magnesite (MgCO3(s)) into at around 1200oC


Write a balanced equation for the magensite decomposition being sure to include states for the species.


I thought it was:
MgCO3(s) ...> MgO (s) + CO2(g)


but it was marked wrong.


help..thank you.
