The meaning of amphoteric is: a compound which can react with acids but also with bases.
Some examples of amphoteric oxides: Al2O3, ZnO, SiO2, TiO2, ZrO2, PbO, etc.
Copper (I) Oxide or Cuprous Oxide
oxide is not. But nitrous oxide is!
No, only aluminum oxide, lead oxide and zinc oxide are amphoteric oxides.
CuO = Cupric Oxide Cupric = Cu2+ and is not Cu The correct answer would be CuO = Copper Monoxide Copper (II) oxide is the name of the compound CuO.
Cuprous oxide or copper I oxide is Cu2O
Copper (I) Oxide or Cuprous Oxide
Magnesium Oxide
oxide is not. But nitrous oxide is!
Sodium oxide, Magnesium oxide, Copper oxide, Acidic oxide, Amphoteric oxide
Yes it is an amphoteric oxide as it has both basic oxide and acidic oxide properties.
Copper(I) Oxide: Cu2O (cuprous oxide)orCopper(II) Oxide: CuO (cupric oxide)it can be both.
FeO for ferrous oxide, ( iron(II) oxide); Fe2O3 for ferric oxide, (iron(III) oxide) and Fe3O4 for ferrous ferric oxide, (iron (II,III) oxide)
Al is the symbol for Aluminum and O is the symbol for oxygen. When oxygen is paired in a compound, it is changed to oxide. The name then is aluminum oxide.
FeO for ferrous oxide, ( iron(II) oxide); Fe2O3 for ferric oxide, (iron(III) oxide) and Fe3O4 for ferrous ferric oxide, (iron (II,III) oxide)
Copper(I) Oxide: Cu2O (cuprous oxide)orCopper(II) Oxide: CuO (cupric oxide)it can be both.
No,it is not acidic.It is a basic oxide.
It is a meltalloid oxide.
