Solution

Corrected statement: Sodium hydrogen carbonate on strong heating decomposes to form sodium carbonate, carbon dioxide, and water.
The given reaction is
$\underset{Sodium hydrogen carbonate Sodium carbonate Carbon dioxide Water}{2 {NaHCO}_{3} (s) \overset{∆}{\to} {Na}_{2} {CO}_{3} (s) + {CO}_{2} (g) + H_{2} O (l)}$
It is a thermal decomposition type of reaction.
