Give the oxides with their acid base property

Chemistry

ScanSolve AI Answer

here are the oxides with their acid-base properties:

  • Acidic Oxides: These are typically oxides of non-metals. They react with bases to form salt and water, and often dissolve in water to form acidic solutions.

    • Carbon dioxide: CO2\text{CO}_2
    • Sulfur dioxide: SO2\text{SO}_2
    • Sulfur trioxide: SO3\text{SO}_3
    • Phosphorus(V) oxide: P4O10\text{P}_4\text{O}_{10}
    • Nitrogen dioxide: NO2\text{NO}_2
  • Basic Oxides: These are typically oxides of metals. They react with acids to form salt and water, and often dissolve in water to form alkaline solutions.

    • Sodium oxide: Na2O\text{Na}_2\text{O}
    • Calcium oxide: CaO\text{CaO}
    • Magnesium oxide: MgO\text{MgO}
    • Copper(II) oxide: CuO\text{CuO}
  • Amphoteric Oxides: These oxides can react with both acids and bases to form salt and water. They show properties of both acidic and basic oxides.

    • Aluminium oxide: Al2O3\text{Al}_2\text{O}_3
    • Zinc oxide: ZnO\text{ZnO}
    • Lead(II) oxide: PbO\text{PbO}
    • Chromium(III) oxide: Cr2O3\text{Cr}_2\text{O}_3
  • Neutral Oxides: These oxides do not react with either acids or bases. They do not form salts or water when mixed with acids or bases.

    • Carbon monoxide: CO\text{CO}
    • Nitrogen monoxide: NO\text{NO}
    • Dinitrogen oxide (nitrous oxide): N2O\text{N}_2\text{O}
