Whats a basic oxide
an oxide that reacts with an acid to form salt and water
whats an acidic oxide
its an oxide when reacts with bases forms salt and water
whats an amphoteric oxide
type of oxide that reacts with both acid and a base
whats a neutral acid
it doesnt react with acids or bases
two example of bases
metal carbonates, metal hydroxides, metal oxides
Define the term alkali
An alkali is a soluble base that produces hydrogen ions in water
