Introduction

In this lesson: I can describe the properties of metal and non-metal oxides and write equations to represent reactions of metal oxides with acid. A metal oxide consists of metal atoms bonded to oxygen atoms. Metal oxides are bases and can react with acids to neutralise them.

Show transcript
A metal oxide consists of metal atoms bonded to oxygen atoms. Metal oxides are bases and can react with acids to neutralise them. Metal oxide + acid ⭢ metal salt + water A non-metal oxide consists of non-metal atoms bonded to oxygen atoms. Non-metal oxides in water make acidic solutions.
