Is zinc oxide an amphoteric oxide?
Yes, it is amphoteric, at the same time it behaves like acid AND like base: it acts as an acid when in a base: ZnO(s) + 2OH-(aq) +H20(l) -> [Zn(OH)4]2-(aq) it reacts as a b…ase when in acid: ZnO(s) + 2H+(aq) -> Zn2+(aq) + H2O(l) (MORE)

Is aluminum oxide an amphoteric oxide?
Aluminum*)oxide is an amphoteric compound by being both 1. acidic and 2. alkaline 1. acidic It will dissolve in hydroxide (an alkaline solution): Al2O3 + 2OH- + 3H2O --> 2… Al(OH)4- aluminate anion 2. alkaline It will dissolve in acidic H+ solution: Al2O3 + 6H+ --> 2Al3+ + 3H2O The amphoteric, neutral formula can be written as both Al2O3.(H2O)3 and: 2Al(OH)3 Added (The same answer, but this time written without ions in solvent): Aluminium*)oxide is amphoteric: Al2O3(s) can react with a base: Al2O3(s) + 2NaOH(aq) + H2O(l) --> 2NaAl(OH)4(aq) Aluminium oxide + sodium hydroxide + water --> sodium aluminate Al2O3 can react with an acid: Al2O3(s) + 6HCl(aq) --> 2AlCl3(aq) + 3H2O(l) Aluminium oxide + hydrochloric acid --> aluminum chloride + water *) The USA spells Al as aluminum; British Isles as aluminum. Both are correct. (MORE)

What is acidic oxide and basic oxide?
Many oxides will react, especially in water, to form acids orbases. As a rule of thumb nonmetal oxides tend to be acidic whilemetal oxides tend to be basic or amphoteric. For …example, carbon dioxide reacts with water to form carbonic acidso it is an acidic oxide. CO 2 + H 2 O -->H 2 CO 3 By contrast, calcium oxide reacts in water toform calcium hydroxide, so it is a basic oxide. CaO + H 2 O -->Ca(OH) 2 (MORE)
