The decomposition of mercury(II) oxide is represented by: 2HgO(s)→2Hg(l)+O2(g)2HgO(s) \rightarrow 2Hg(l) + O_2(g). This reaction was historically important in the discovery of oxygen. A student heats a sample and observes liquid mercury droplets and gas evolution. What evidence would best distinguish this as decomposition rather than a phase change?
