Q. Explain about Neutral and Amphoteric oxides?

Neutral oxides have neither acidic nor basic properties and when dissolved in water, they give neutral solutions, e.g., CO, N₂0, etc.

Amphoteric oxides show both acidic and basic properties. They react with acids as well as with alkalis to give salt and water, e.g., Al₂0₃, ZnO, PbO, etc.

ZnO + 2HCl-----------------> ZnCl₂+ H₂O

ZnO + 2NaOH---------------> Na₂ZnO₂+ H₂O

Al₂O₃+ 6HCl--------------> 2AlCl₃+ 3H₂O

Al₂O₃+ 2NaOH + 3H₂O-----------> 2NaAl (OH)₄
