What else can I help you with?
Metals tend to form?
Metal oxides which are bases
What combines with water to produce acids?
acidic gases - e.g. oxides of non-metals - so oxides of sulfur and nitrogen will form acids
Are non metals oxide or bases?
Most of the non-metallic oxides are acidic in nature as CO2, SO3 and P2O5 but some non-metallic oxides are neutral as oxides of nitrogen.
Oxides that are both acids and bases?
Amphoteric oxides can act as both acids and bases. These oxides have the ability to donate or accept a proton depending on the reaction conditions. Common examples include aluminum oxide (Al2O3) and zinc oxide (ZnO).
Who reacts with metal bases or acids?
Metal oxides are basic in nature and react with acids to form salts and water. Non-metal oxides are acidic in nature and react with bases to form salts and water. Metals generally react with acids to form salts and hydrogen gas.
What does the nature of non metallic oxides?
Non-metallic oxides are typically acidic in nature. They tend to react with water to form acidic solutions, which can corrode metals and have a sour taste. Examples include carbon dioxide (CO2) and sulfur dioxide (SO2).
Is a base corrosive to metals?
oxegen is a corrosive and yet a base so therefore yes
Which are products of the alkaline and earth alkaline metals combustion?
Alkaline metals and alkaline earth metals form their oxides when burnt. These oxides are base.
What type of oxides are formed when metals combine with oxygen?
acidic oxides
What are gases you can see?
You cannot see (with the eyes) oxygen and nitrogen, methane or hydrogen, argon, carbon dioxide, helium, neon etc. But you can see nitrogen oxides as products of a reaction between nitric acid and some metals or oxides.
What are considered bases?
Bases are chemical substances that have a pH greater than 7. They can accept protons (H+) from acids to form water and salt. Common bases include sodium hydroxide (NaOH), ammonia (NH3), and potassium hydroxide (KOH).
Is metal oxide is a base?
Metal oxides can act as bases because of their ability to accept protons. When metal oxides react with water, they can form metal hydroxides, which are basic in nature due to their ability to release hydroxide ions in solution.
