Acidic oxides form acids with water: eg SO2 + H2O --> H2SO3
Basic oxides form basic salts (alkaline) with water: eg. CaO + H2O --> Ca(OH)2
Amfotheric oxides have both acidic and base properties:
eg. Aluminium oxide is an amphoteric oxide, which means that it displays
both acidic (1) and base (2) properties:
1. Al2O3 + H2O --> 2 Al(OH)2- + 2 H+
2. Al2O3 + H2O --> 2 Al3+ + 3 OH-
