No. Carbon dioxide when in water makes carbonic acid. Sulfur oxides, there are several, can form sulfuric acid, sulfurous acid, and more. Nitrogen oxides, several those also, form nitric acid, nitrous acid, etc. Hydrogen oxide, water, is neutral.

What is a soluble basic oxide?
metal oxides are known as basic oxides only non metalic base is ammonium hydroxide . group ii oxides are generally insoluble
Is metal oxide is a base?
Yes, certain metal oxides, mostly from the middle groups of the transition metals are acidic. Chromium and rhenium, for example, both form oxides which are acidic in water.
What are metal oxides with examples?
Metal oxides are oxides of metal. They are ionic in nature and form basic oxides. Eg: Na2O, MgO,etc
Are all oxides acidic?
No. A number of metal oxides are basic.
Are metals oxides acidic?
No, metal oxides are basic in nature.
How does the acid-base nature of the oxides in the period 3 change with the increasing atomic number?
basic metal oxides change to acidic non-metal oxides

Are metal's oxides gases or bases?
Metal oxides are typically basic.

No. A number of metal oxides are basic.
Are metals oxides acidic?
No, metal oxides are basic in nature.
Is NaI acidic neutral or basic?
sodium oxide, Na2O, is basic. This is because it is a metal oxide. Metal oxides tend to be basic while non metal oxides tend to be acidic.
Is MgO an acidic or basic anhydride?
Basic. Remember metal oxides of which magnesium oxide is one, are basic oxides.
Are non metal oxides acids or bases?
Metallic oxides are basic because they dissociate to form the hydroxyl ions while the non-metallic oxides are acidic because they dissociate to form hydrogen ions.
Why metallic oxides are basic and non metallic oxides are acidic?
Metallic oxides are basic because they dissociate to form the hydroxyl ions while the non-metallic oxides are acidic because they dissociate to form hydrogen ions.
What are the characteristics of oxide?
They are usually dull and brittle, form crystals and are insoluble (apart from potassium, sodium, lithium and ammonium oxides). Metal oxides are largely basic. Non-metal oxides are acidic. Aluminium and Zinc oxides are amphoteric (can act as a base or and acid by being able to both donate and accept protons.)
