Asked in Acids and Bases
Is metal oxide an alkali?
Metal oxide is the ionic bond combination of any metal element
of the periodic table of elements with oxygen. The alkali metals
and alkali earth metals are respectively the first and second
columns of elements found on the periodic table. Thus, alkali metal
oxides and earth metal oxides are types of metal oxides, but metal
oxide does not imply alkali.
