Detailed Solution

The following result is obtained as thermal decomposition of  CaCO3

CaCO3CaO+CO2

CaO is a basic oxide and  CO2 is an acidic oxide. When calcium carbonate is heated, calcium oxide and carbon dioxide are produced. Heat is necessary for the process of thermal breakdown. Hence thermal decomposition of calcium carbonate gives both basic and acidic oxide.
