Answer:
metals and non metal
Explanation:
Oxides of metals are basic in nature whereas oxides of non-metals are acidic in nature.
Metal oxides are basic since they form a salt and water when they dissolve in water. Metal oxides contain OH-
. Ions are hence basic in nature.
Non-metal oxides such as sulphur dioxide contain H+
ions that dissolve in water to form acidic solutions.
