Describe an activity to test the -Nature of non metallic oxide.
Answers
Answer:
Observation:
Not all metals burn easily, Copper and aluminium take time to burn.
Flame colour:
Sodium: Yellow
Magnesium: White
Aluminium: Silver white
Copper :blue flame
Solubility:
Metal oxides from metal hydroxide with water, so they are soluble in water. Beryllium and magnesium are exceptions as they are slightly soluble in water.
Metal oxide + H2O(l) ———> Metal Hydroxide.
Explanation:
Metals are highly reactive elements. They react with oxygen readily to form metal oxides. Highly reactive metals like lithium, sodium, potassium, beryllium, magnesium react spontaneously. Other metals like Aluminum, copper take time to burn. It produces a specific flame colour. Many times flame colour is used to find the constituent of the substance.
Metal + O2(g) ———> Metal oxide(s)
Inference/conclusion:
Metals on the heating burn to produce its oxides. During this process, they produce characteristic flames.
