Question

Differentiate between metals oxide and non-metals oxide answer in detail

Answer 1

Metals react with oxygen to form metallic oxide while Non metals react with oxygen to form non metallic oxide. metallic oxide are basic in nature while Non metallic oxides are acidic in nature .

Ionic metal oxides react with water to give hydroxides (compounds containing the OH− ion) and resultant basic solutions, whereas most nonmetal oxides react with water to form acids and resultant acidic solutions .
