The following are decomposition rxs with heat that yield gases.
For the 1st rx, the products are in black, but for the other rx, the products are in white


1. NH4NO2(s) → N2(g) + 2H2O(g)

2. ammonium tetraoxosulphate(VI) salt is decomposed by heat.

(NH4)2SO4(s) → 2NH3(g) + H2SO4(l)
3. decomposition of ammonium dioxonitrate(III). NH4NO3(s) → N2O(g) + 2H2O(g)

how do you figure this out? Or is this beyond MCAT scope?
