Answer:

hello friend!

Explanation:

Metal oxides are crystalline solids that contain a metal cation and an oxide anion. They typically react with water to form bases or with acids to form salts. MO + H2O → M(OH)2 (where M = group 2 metal) Thus, these compounds are often called basic oxides.

Explanation:

Metal Oxides:

Metal OxidesMetal oxides are crystalline solids that contain a metal cation and an oxide anion. They typically react with water to form bases or with acids to form salts.The alkali metals and alkaline earth metals form three different types of binary oxygen compounds: (1) oxides, containing oxide ions, O2−, (2) peroxides, containing peroxide ions, O22−, which contain oxygen-oxygen covalent single bonds, and (3) superoxides, containing superoxide ions, O2−, which also have oxygen-oxygen covalent bonds but with one fewer negative charge than peroxide ions. Alkali metals (which have a +1 oxidation state) form oxides, M2O, peroxides, M2O2, and superoxides, MO2. (M represents a metal atom.)
