On heating NaOH3(baking soda), CO2(carbon dioxide) gas is given out that turns limewater milky
\(2NaHCO_3(s)\overset{\triangle}{\longrightarrow} \) Na2CO3(s) + H2O(l) + CO2(g)
While on heating Na2CO3.10H2O (washing soda) water of crystallization is given out and the salt becomes anhydrous. The presence of water of crystallization given as product can be tested by treating. it with anhydrous CuSO4 (white) which becomes blue in colour in its contact.
Na2CO3.10H2O \(\overset{\triangle}{\longrightarrow}\)Na2CO3 + 10H2O
