Answer:

ANSWER

Since the oxide turns red litmus blue, therefore X is a metal because it is an alkaline oxide.

Most of the metals form respective metal oxides when react with oxygen.

Metal + Oxygen → metal oxide

Examples: (1) Reaction of potassium with oxygen:- Potassium metal forms potassium oxide when reacts with oxygen.

4K+O2→2K2O

(2) Reaction of sodium with oxygen:- Sodium metal forms sodium oxide when reacts with oxygen.

4Na+O2→2Na2O
