Neutral oxides
Open in App
Solution
- Neutral oxides: An neutral oxide is an oxide that exhibits the property of neither an acid nor a base.
- Examples of neutral oxides: Water (H2O), Carbon mono-oxide (CO), Nitric oxide (NO)
- Characteristics of neutral oxides:
- Neutral oxides are generally formed by the reaction of Oxygen (O) with non-metals like Carbon (C), Nitrogen (N).
- Neutral oxides neither react with an acid nor with a base.
- They do not form salt on reaction with an acid or a base.
- Carbon mono-oxide is slightly soluble in water whereas Nitric oxide is soluble in water to a great extent.
