Answer

  1. Decomposition of calcium bicarbonate by dil. HCl
    Ca(HCO3)2 + 2HCl ⟶ CaCl2 + 2H2O+ 2CO2
  2. Decomposition of calcium carbonate by dil. HNO3
    CaCO3 + 2HNO3 ⟶ Ca(NO3)2 + H2O+ CO2
  3. Decomposition of sodium sulphite by dil. H2SO4
    Na2SO3 + H2SO4 (dil.) ⟶ Na2SO4 + H2O + SO2
  4. Decomposition of zinc sulphide by dil. H2SO4
    ZnS + H2SO4 ⟶ ZnSO4 + H2S
