In this series of reactions, sodium bicarbonate (NaHCO3) initially decomposes into carbon dioxide (CO2) and an intermediate compound called calcium carbonate (CaCO3). The calcium carbonate further reacts to form calcium bicarbonate (Ca(HCO3)2), which eventually decomposes back into calcium carbonate and carbon dioxide in a reversible reaction.
