DEMO|TOPIC 09-COMPOUNDS OF METALS

 

COMPOUNDS OF METALS

A. METAL OXIDE

An oxide is a compound of oxygen with another element.

Preparation of oxides:

There are two ways of preparing metal oxides

a) DIRECT METHOD

It involves direct combination of metal with oxygen

1. INDIRECT METHOD

It involves thermal decomposition of a salt of carbonate, hydroxide (I) nitrates

CLASSIFICATION OF METAL OXIDES

  1. BASIC OXIDES

Are oxides of metal when reacts with acid forms salts

Examples are MgO, CaO, Na2O, K2O

  1. ACIDIC OXIDES

Are oxides of non metals and when dissolved in water form solution

Examples are CO2, NO2, SO2

  1. AMPHOTERIC OXIDES

These are oxides which have both basic and acidic properties

(H neutralize both acidic and Alkali to form salt)

Examples are ZnO, Al2O3 and PbO
