As we learn

Nature of Bicarbonates of alkaline earth metals -

Do not exist in solid state but in solution on heated, these decomposed to evolve O_{2}

Thermal Stability

Ba(HCO_{3})_{2}>Sr(HCO_{3})_{2}>Ca(HCO_{3})_{2}>Mg (HCO_{3})_{2}

- wherein

M(HCO_{3})_{2}(aq.)\overset{heat}{\rightarrow}MCO_{3}(s) +CO_{2}(g) +H_{2} O(l)

 

 Ca (HCO3)2 ðCaCO3 + CO2 + H2O
