Solution

BaCO3ΔBaO+CO2
MgCO3ΔMgO+CO2
SrCO3ΔSrO+CO2
NH4HCO3ΔNH3+H2O+CO2
(NH4)2CO3Δ2NH3+H2O+CO2
2Mg(NO3)2Δ2MgO+4NO2+O2
MgCl2.6H2OΔMgO+2HCl+5H2O
(NH4)2Cr2O7ΔN2+Cr2O3+H2O

Aqueous solution of CO2 and NO2 gas is acidic in nature which turns blue litmus into red. But aqueous solution of N2 gas is neutral.
