Carbon dioxide (CO2) and oxygen (O2) are two. Gases don't really "dissolve" in water, but are said to be soluble.

All solutions are characterized by interactions between the solvent phase and solute molecules or ions that result in a net decrease in free energy. The more the decrease in energy, the more is the solubility. When a gas can form a bond with water molecules like hydrogen chloride or ammonia, the solubility is high. When it can form a compound with a definite molecular formula like carbo dioxide or sulphur di/tri oxide the solubility is moderate. If neither of the above occurs as in the case of oxygen or hydrogen, the solubility is low.

There are some more gases tat are soluble in water that are-

  1. Argon
  2. Methane
  3. Ethylene
  4. Ethane
  5. Carbon-mono-oxide
  6. Carbon-di-oxide
  7. Chlorine Gas
  8. Hydrogen Gas
  9. Hydrogen Sulfide
  10. Helium
  11. Nitrogen
  12. Ammonia
  13. Sulfur Oxide

What is an acidic oxide?

An acidic oxide is a type of oxide that reacts with water to form an acid. These oxides are typically non-metal oxides, such as sulfur dioxide (SO2) or carbon dioxide (CO2), which dissolve in water to produce acidic solutions. They can also react with bases to form salts and water.

Will na2o react with water to form a acidic solution?

No, it will form a basic solution of Sodium Hydroxide as per the following equation. Na2O + H2O ---> 2NaOH As the solution will have OH- ions so it will be basic. Na2O is a basic oxide and basic oxide dissolve in water to form bases( here NaOH). Acidic oxides dissolves in water to form acids. Alkali metal(group 1 of periodic table) oxides are always basic oxides, but all metal oxides may not be basic( some transition metal oxides are acidic).
