Answer: The chemical equation is written below.

Step-by-step explanation:

Decomposition reaction is defined as the chemical reaction in which a single large substance breaks down into two or more smaller substances.

We are given a chemical compound having formula
Na_2SO_4.10H_2O

The chemical equation for the decomposition of given hydrated salt follows:


Na_2SO_4.10H_2O\xrightarrow{\Delta} Na_2SO_4+10H_2O

The hydrated salt looses its water of crystallization and forms anhydrous salt.

Hence, the chemical equation is written above.
