amphoteric, it reacts with an acid or a base to form a salt and water (a neutralisation reaction)
ZnO(s) + 2HCL (aq) = ZnCl2(aq) + H2O(l)
ZnO (s) + 2OH- (aq) = ZnO22-(s) + H2O(l)

Examples of basic oxides?
Sodium oxide, Magnesium oxide, Copper oxide, Acidic oxide, Amphoteric oxide
How do you separate copper from copper oxide?
I think you mean how do you extract copper from copper oxide, if so here's your answer. Take your copper oxide and heat it with something that is more reactive than copper. Carbon is a good example. The more reactive carbon will oxidise, taking the oxygen from the copper oxide leaving copper. copper oxide + carbon --> copper + carbon dioxide 2Cu0 + C --> 2Cu + CO2
Is oxide basic?
The oxide ion itself is basic, but oxides of various elements may be acidic, basic, or amphoteric.
Is sodium oxide a amphoteric oxide?
No. Sodium oxide has only basic properties, no acidic ones.
Is copper oxide a alkali?
Copper oxide is not an alkaline but it is a base
Examples of basic oxides?
Sodium oxide, Magnesium oxide, Copper oxide, Acidic oxide, Amphoteric oxide
Is aluminmum oxide an amphoteric oxide?
Yes it is an amphoteric oxide as it has both basic oxide and acidic oxide properties.
Is gallium oxide basic or amphoteric?
Gallium Oxide is an amphoteric Oxide because it is just below Aluminum in periodic table which also gives amphoteric oxide Regards: Engineer Ahmad

No. Sodium oxide has only basic properties, no acidic ones.
Classification of oxides?
Oxides are classified into 3 types: > Basic oxide > Acidic oxide > Amphoteric oxide (both Basic and Acidic)
What is CO is it neutral oxide acidic oxide or basic oxide?
it is a neutral oxide insoluble in water, but behaves as amphoteric compound.
Is magnesium oxide amphoteric?
No, only aluminum oxide, lead oxide and zinc oxide are amphoteric oxides.
Name an amphoteric oxide reduced by the basic gas?
It may be water H2O which forms NH4OH with basic gas NH3.
Is Barium oxide acidic or basic oxide?
Aluminium oxide is an amphoteric substance, meaning it can react with both acids and bases, such as hydrochloric acid and sodium hydroxide, acting as an acid with a base and a base with an acid, neutralising the other and producing a salt.
Is copper oxide a alkali?
Copper oxide is not an alkaline but it is a base
