what r acidic oxides and basic oxides |
|
Answer» Ans :- Acidic oxides, or acid anhydrides, are oxides that react with water to form an acid, or with a base to form a salt. They are oxides of either nonmetals or of metals in high oxidation states. Their chemistry can be systematically understood by taking an oxoacid and removing water from it, until only an oxide remains. A basic oxide is an oxide that shows basic properties in opposition to acidic oxides and that either reacts with water to form a base; or reacts with an acid to form a salt and water. It is formed by reacting oxygen with metals. |
