As a solid metal oxide , it is a BASE.
When dissolved in water it is an ALKALI.
Remember an Alkali is a soluble BASE.
A soluble base is an ALKALI. e.g. potassium oxide is a base. potassium hydroxide is an alkali. Eq'n. K2O(s) + H2O(l) = 2KOH(aq). Definitely ; a soluble base is an alkali.
Amphoteric oxides are metal oxides that exhibit both acidic and basic behavior depending on the pH of the solution. Examples include zinc oxide and aluminum oxide.
a basic oxide that dissolves in water is called an alkali
A soluble base is called an alkali. Alkalis are substances that can neutralize acids, forming salts and water. Examples of soluble bases include sodium hydroxide and potassium hydroxide.

Amphoteric oxides are metal oxides that exhibit both acidic and basic behavior depending on the pH of the solution. Examples include zinc oxide and aluminum oxide.
It may be water H2O which forms NH4OH with basic gas NH3.
