Question
Write the equation for the action of heat on Ammonium chloride.
State whether the reaction is an example of thermal decomposition or thermal dissociation.
Solution
The action of heat on ammonium chloride \[\ce{(NH4Cl)}\] can be represented by the following equation:
\[\ce{NH4Cl <=> NH3 + HCl}\]
This reaction is an example of heat dissociation, which occurs when a chemical breaks down into simpler components without oxygen. Ammonium chloride dissociates into \[\ce{NH3}\] and \[\ce{HCl}\].
