Question

An oxide of an element was dissolved in water. The final solution turned red litmus blue. Is the element metal, Non metal or a metalloid

Answer 1

the element is a metal because only metal oxides turn red litmus blue

Answer 2

Hey friend!!!

Here's your answer

The solution turned red litmus to blue

So it must be a basic solution.

The oxides of metals and metalloid(show property of both metals and non metals) are basic.

So the answer is metal and metalloid.
