Metal oxides are oxides of metal. They are ionic in nature and form basic oxides. Eg: Na2O, MgO,etc
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.
normal oxides of metals have general formula M3O. & super oxides have general formula MO2. super oxides are coloured & paramagnetic in nature due to presence of unpaired electrons.on moving down side the group tendency to form super oxides increases.& that of normal oxides decreases. oxides of metals on dissolving in water form their hydroxides only.while super oxides form hydroxides with the release of H2O2 & H2.
This element is sodium and the oxides are: Na2O, Na2O2, NaO2.
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.
they form mainly oxides

Many metal oxides are alkaline and form hydroxides in the presence of water.
yes

Metal oxides which are bases
Metal Salts + water
They are also known as acidic oxides since they form acidic solutions in water.
