oxides are formed when a element reacts with Oxygen
Oxygen is a non-metal. (Oxides are compounds of oxygen)
A metal that reacts with another metal would be a metal, not a nonmetal. Metals don't generally chemically react with one another, but they can be made to form metal mixtures called alloys.
Copper oxide is a compound of copper and oxygen. It is not a metal. Copper is a metal, oxygen is a (non-metalic) gas.
These terms apply to elements, not compounds.
They form an ionic compound.
oxygen.
metal hydroxide
No, it is a compound of a metal and a nonmetal. Pure iron is a metal, however.
An oxygen atom can only be oxidized by some element with an equal or higher electronegativity. So, oxygen can be oxidized by fluorine (e.g., OF2) or by another oxygen atom (e.g., O2).
water is a nonmetal oxide
Lead oxide is not a metal. Why?Lead is metal by itself, lead oxide is metal oxide, meaning it is a chemical compound that contains at least one atom of oxygen (thus oxide) and one other element (being a metal oxide, that one other element has to be metal, in this case lead).
Phosphorus is not an oxide. It is an element. It is a nonmetal.
Carbon is a nonmetal. Thus this is a nonmetal oxide.
metal
When a metal oxide reacts with an acid a slat and water are formed.
No potassium OXIDE is not: IT IS A METAL. IT IS A METAL.And it is not a NONmetal either.Potassium OXIDE K2O is a basic oxide: with water it forms (only) potassium hydroxide, KOHPotassium (elemental) is a alkali metal
Metal oxide reacting with a nonmetal oxide produces a salt.Examples:CaO + CO2 --> CaCO3PbO + SO3 --> PbSO42 NaO + H2O --> 2 NaOH
Metal oxide reacting with a nonmetal oxide makes a salt.Examples:CaO + CO2 --> CaCO3PbO + SO3 --> PbSO42 NaO + H2O --> 2 NaOH
salt
magnesium is neather a metal nor a non metal. instead it was discovered on the moon in 1899 on the first space walk. since then it has been used to build flame resistant bridges and the 2010 aero sun probe.
metal hydroxide
It forms acidic solutions
Magnesium is the metal which reacts with oxygen to form magnesium oxide.
