Explanation:
3)An amphoteric oxide is one that can act as a base or as an acid. The non-metallic oxides are generally acidic and the metallic oxides are basic. ... Amphoteric oxides react with both acids and alkalis to form salt and water. Examples of amphoteric oxides are zinc oxide and aluminum oxide.
4)Alkali salts
Sodium hydroxide (NaOH) – often called "caustic soda" Potassium hydroxide (KOH) – commonly called "caustic potash" Lye – generic term for either of two previous salts or their mixture. Calcium hydroxide (Ca(OH)2) – saturated solution known as "limewater"
When any substance burns in oxygen it is called a combustion reaction. Potassium (lilac) burns most vigorously followed by sodium (orange-yellow) and then lithium (red), as you might expect.
