Text Solution

Verified by Experts

The correct Answer is:
1

There are some oxides which are neither acidic nor basic. Such oxides which neither combine with acids nor with bases to form salts are known as netural oxides. examples are `CO,NO`,and `N_(2)O`.On the other hand ,`Al_(2)O_(3)` ,is an amphoteric oxide as it reacts with acids as well as bases.
`Al_(2)O_(3)(s)+6HCl(aq)+9H_(2)O(l)rarr2[Al(H_(2)O)_(6)]^(2+)(aq.)=6Cl^(-)(aq.)`
`Al_(2)O_(3)(s)+6NaOH(aq.)+3H_(2)O(l)rarr2Na_(3)[Al(OH)_(6)](aq.)`
