Question

experimently prove that metal oxides are basic in nature

Answer 1

When metallic oxides react with water, they form metallic hydroxides. A litmus test on this reveals that this turn red litmus paper to blue. This shows that metallic oxides are basic.

Answer 2

When metallic oxides react with water they form metallic hydroxides which are basic in nature. To show that these are basic in nature,we should conduct a litmus paper test. In this experiment,we will observe that red litmus turns blue on coming in contact with them. This shows that metallic oxides are basic in nature.
