TYPE OF SALTS
Carbonate salts

REACTION PRODUCTS
Metal oxide and CO2

Nitrate salts

Metal oxide, Nitrogen dioxide(NO2) and oxygen (O2)

Sulphate salts

-Sulphate salts all are not decompose except for Zinc

sulphate, Copper(II)sulphate and Iron(III) sulphate.
They decompose to produce metal oxide and sulphur
trioxide (SO3)

Chloride salts

- Ammonium sulphate salts decompose to release ammonia

gas and sulphuric acid vapour
Chloride salts all are not decompose except ammonium
chloride. Its decompose to produce ammonia and hydrogen
chloride
