on going down in a group in a pereiodic table the electropositivity increases as a result the bond between Na2Co3 is more strong than Li2Co3 due to more electronegativity difference.so Li2Co3 is decomposed at a lower temperature since it requires less energy to break its bond as compared to Na2Co3.
