Question

some metallic oxide is amphoteric in nature justify with suitable examples and write the chemical equation​

Answer 1

Answer:

metal oxide react with oxide and after reaction it's so properties of both acid and as well as basic so. these reaction are called amphoteric oxide.

Ex=aluminium oxide and zinc oxide

Answer 2

Answer:

Some metal oxides are amphoteric in nature because of the following reasons-

•Amphoteric compounds: Amphoteric compounds are those compounds which shows properties of both acids as well as bases.

•Metal oxides are usually basic in nature and hence reacts with acid to form salts.

•But there are a few metal whose oxides are amphoteric in nature.

•The amphoteric nature of the oxide entirely depends on the oxidation state of metal.

•Some metals show multiple oxidation

states hence tends to react with both acids and bases to form salts at different oxidation states.

•Some common example of amphoteric metal oxides are: Aluminium oxide and zinc oxide.
