:@[[User:Alexander Davronov|Alexander Davronov]]: No, I think that source is just missing a paragraph break. It should probably read "When heated to decomposition...hydrogen gas.¶ In water....", so that the heating and the hydration are completely separate experiments.
:To be fair, its stability equilibria are subtle, and the current article omits that complexity. Ullmann gives an equilibrium constant for hydration (10<sup>−27</sup>) that indicates hyrolysis really isn't spontaneous, except when working with [[hard water|hard]] drinking water. I'll try to incorporate some more material from the Ullmann citation etc. to clear up the ambiguity.

::Thanks. More clarity is welcome. It seems decomposition in water is more complex that I thought. <span style="font-weight: bold" >[[User:Alexander_Davronov|<span style="color:#a8a8a8;">AXO</span><span style="color:#000">NOV</span>]] [[User talk:Alexander_Davronov|(talk)]] [[Special:Contributions/Alexander_Davronov|⚑]]</span> 07:31, 9 March 2024 (UTC)
