It is a basic oxide like its upper neighbours K and Na in the Periodic Table:
Rb2O + H2O --> 2 RbOH
That's where the 'table' was designed for.
Rb is rubidium, O is oxygen. They will combine to form Rb2O which is called rubidium oxide.
Copper oxide is a base, since it neutralises dilute acid.
No. Copper oxide has no acid-base properties.
Rubidium oxide react with water.
RbOH ( Rubidium hydroxide) is a strong alkali. An Alkali is a soluble base.
Rb is rubidium, O is oxygen. They will combine to form Rb2O which is called rubidium oxide.
Copper oxide is a base, since it neutralises dilute acid.
No. Copper oxide has no acid-base properties.
Rubidium oxide has an ionic bond.
Rubidium oxide react with water.
RbOH ( Rubidium hydroxide) is a strong alkali. An Alkali is a soluble base.
Rubidium Hydroxide (RbOH) is a weak base.
It is a base
an acid because it is an oxide not a hydroxide (that would be a base)
The chemical formula for Rubidium Oxide is the formula: Rb2O.
It is an AMPHOTERIC oxide. That is , in an environment of low(acid) pH it behaves as a BASE. In an environment of high(alkaline) pH it behaves as an ACID.
acid.
