Answer 1

${\underbrace{\pink{\rm{Answer|checkmark}}}}}$

It can either donate or accept a proton or H+ ion thus acting as base or an acid. Metals that exhibit amphoterism include copper, zinc, lead, tin, beryllium, and aluminum. A common example of amphoteric oxide is zinc oxide (ZnO)

Answer 2

Answer:

the oxides which show both acidic and basic nature in the aqueous solution

example = Al2O3 and ZnO

Acidic = ZnO + HCl → ZnCl + H2O

Basic = ZNO + NaOH → Na2ZnO2 + H2O
