: HEY BRO

HERES YOUR ANSWER

TRUE

Explanation:

I can only say an example

Magnesium is a metal .When you burn a magnesium ribbon ,it burns with a dazzling white flame producing white Ash. In this process, magnesium reacts with oxygen.

Mg+O2 = MgO

Magnesium+ Oxygen = Magnesium oxide

Now if you add water to the white Ash and test it it with Litmus Paper ,this will prove that the white Ash produced is basic in nature.

MgO + H2O = MgOH

Magnesium oxide+ water = Magnesium oxide

At the same time ,if sulphur ,a non metal comes in contact with oxygen it forms Sulphur dioxide which is acidic in nature . If we add water Sulphur dioxide it forms sulfuric acid which is also acidic in nature.
