Metal + Oxygen → metal oxide

Examples: (1) Reaction of potassium with oxygen:- Potassium metal forms potassium oxide when reacts with oxygen.

4K+O

O

(2) Reaction of sodium with oxygen:- Sodium metal forms sodium oxide when reacts with oxygen.

4Na+O

Most metal oxides are insoluble in water but some of these dissolve in water to form alkalis. Sodium oxide and potassium oxide dissolve in water to produce alkalis.

Na
