Complex inorganic substances are divided into four classes: oxides, acids, bases, salts. We start with the oxide class.

OXIDES

oxides - these are complex substances consisting of two chemical elements, one of which is oxygen, with a valence equal to 2. Only one chemical element - fluorine, combining with oxygen, forms not an oxide, but oxygen fluoride OF 2.
They are called simply - "oxide + element name" (see table). If the valency of a chemical element is variable, then it is indicated by a Roman numeral enclosed in parentheses after the name of the chemical element.

1). Basic oxides are oxides that correspond to bases. The main oxides are oxides metals 1 and 2 groups, as well as metals side subgroups with valency I and II (except ZnO - zinc oxide and BeO – beryllium oxide):

2). Acid oxides are oxides to which acids correspond. Acid oxides are non-metal oxides (except for non-salt-forming - indifferent), as well as metal oxides side subgroups with valency from V before VII (For example, CrO 3 is chromium (VI) oxide, Mn 2 O 7 is manganese (VII) oxide):


3). Amphoteric oxides are oxides, which correspond to bases and acids. These include metal oxides main and secondary subgroups with valency III , sometimes IV , as well as zinc and beryllium (For example, BeO, ZnO, Al 2 O 3, Cr 2 O 3).

4). Non-salt-forming oxides are oxides that are indifferent to acids and bases. These include non-metal oxides with valency I and II (For example, N 2 O, NO, CO).

Conclusion: the nature of the properties of oxides primarily depends on the valency of the element.

For example, chromium oxides:

CrO(II- main);

Cr 2 O 3 (III- amphoteric);

CrO 3 (VII- acid).

CHEMICAL PROPERTIES OF AMPHOTERIC OXIDES

They interact with both acids and alkalis.

ZnO + 2 HCl = ZnCl 2 + H 2 O

ZnO + 2 NaOH + H 2 O \u003d Na 2 [Zn (OH) 4] (in solution)

ZnO + 2 NaOH = Na 2 ZnO 2 + H 2 O (when fused)

Application of oxides

Some oxides do not dissolve in water, but many react with water to combine:

SO 3 + H 2 O \u003d H 2 SO 4

CaO + H 2 O = Ca( Oh) 2

The result is often very desirable and useful compounds. For example, H 2 SO 4 is sulfuric acid, Ca (OH) 2 is slaked lime, etc.

If oxides are insoluble in water, then people skillfully use this property as well. For example, zinc oxide ZnO is a white substance, therefore it is used to prepare white oil paint (zinc white). Since ZnO is practically insoluble in water, any surface can be painted with zinc white, including those that are exposed to atmospheric precipitation. Insolubility and non-toxicity make it possible to use this oxide in the manufacture of cosmetic creams and powders. Pharmacists make it an astringent and drying powder for external use.

Titanium oxide (IV) - TiO 2 has the same valuable properties. It also has a beautiful white color and is used to make titanium white. TiO 2 is insoluble not only in water, but also in acids; therefore, coatings made of this oxide are particularly stable. This oxide is added to plastic to give it a white color. It is part of the enamels for metal and ceramic utensils.

Chromium oxide (III) - Cr 2 O 3 - very strong crystals of dark green color, insoluble in water. Cr 2 O 3 is used as a pigment (paint) in the manufacture of decorative green glass and ceramics. The well-known GOI paste (short for the name “State Optical Institute”) is used for grinding and polishing optics, metal products in jewelry.

Due to the insolubility and strength of chromium (III) oxide, it is also used in printing inks (for example, for coloring banknotes). In general, oxides of many metals are used as pigments for a wide variety of paints, although this is by no means their only application.

              You may also be interested in other sections of the Chemistry Handbook:

General formula of oxides: E x O y

Oxygen has the second highest electronegativity value (after fluorine), so most compounds of chemical elements with oxygen are oxides.

Salt-forming oxides include those oxides that are capable of reacting with acids or bases to form the corresponding salt and water. Salt-forming oxides include:

  • basic oxides, which usually form metals with an oxidation state of +1, +2. React with acids, acid oxides, amphoteric oxides, water (alkali and alkaline earth metal oxides only). The basic oxide element becomes a cation in the resulting salt. Na₂O, CaO, MgO, CuO.
  • acid oxides- oxides of non-metals, as well as metals in the oxidation state from +5 to +7. React with water, with alkalis, with basic oxides, with amphoteric oxides. The acid oxide element is part of the anion of the resulting salt. Mn 2 O 7, CrO 3, SO 3, N 2 O 5.
  • amphoteric oxides, which form metals with an oxidation state of +3 to +5 (amphoteric oxides also include BeO, ZnO, PbO, SnO). React with acids, alkalis, acidic and basic oxides.

Non-salt-forming oxides do not interact with either acids or bases, respectively, do not form. N 2 O, NO, CO, SiO.

According to the IUPAC nomenclature, the names of oxides are made up of the word oxide and the name of the second chemical element (with less electronegativity) in the genitive case:

Calcium oxide - CaO.

If an element is capable of forming several oxides, then their names should indicate the degree of oxidation of the element (a Roman numeral in brackets after the name):

Fe 2 O 3 - iron oxide (III);

MnO 2 - manganese (IV) oxide.

It is allowed to use Latin prefixes to indicate the number of atoms of the elements included in the oxide molecule:

Na 2 O is disodium oxide;

CO is carbon monoxide;

CO 2 - carbon dioxide.

The trivial names of some oxides are also often used:

Classification of oxides

Salt-forming oxides - These are oxides that form salts as a result of a chemical reaction. These are oxides of metals and non-metals, which, when interacting with water, form the corresponding acids, and when interacting with bases, the corresponding acidic and normal salts.

    • basic oxides (for example, sodium oxide Na2O, copper (II) oxide CuO): metal oxides, the oxidation state of which is I-II;
    • acidic oxides (for example, sulfur(VI) oxide SO3, nitric oxide(IV) NO2): metal oxides with oxidation state V-VII and non-metal oxides;
    • amphoteric oxides (for example, zinc oxide ZnO, aluminum oxide Al2O3): metal oxides with oxidation states III-IV and exceptions (ZnO, BeO, SnO, PbO).

Non-salt-forming oxides:

carbon monoxide(II) CO, nitric oxide(I) N2O, nitric oxide(II) NO, silicon oxide(II) SiO.

Basic properties of chemical oxides

1.Water-soluble basic oxides react with water to form bases:

Na2O + H2O → 2NaOH.

2.React with acidic oxides to form the corresponding salts

Na2O + SO3 → Na2SO4.

3.React with acids to form salt and water:

CuO + H2SO4 → CuSO4 + H2O.

4.React with amphoteric oxides:

Li2O + Al2O3 → 2LiAlO2.

Chemical properties of acid oxides

If the second element in the composition of oxides is a non-metal or a metal exhibiting a higher valency (usually from IV to VII), then such oxides will be acidic. Acid oxides (acid anhydrides) are oxides that correspond to hydroxides belonging to the class of acids. These are, for example, CO2, SO3, P2O5, N2O3, Cl2O5, Mn2O7, etc. They dissolve in water and alkalis, forming salt and water.

1.React with water to form acid:

SO3 + H2O → H2SO4.

But not all acidic oxides directly react with water (SiO2, etc.).

2.React with based oxides to form a salt:

CO2 + CaO → CaCO3

3.They react with alkalis to form salt and water:

CO2 + Ba(OH)2 → BaCO3 + H2O.

Chemical properties of amphoteric oxides

In this composition of the amphoteric oxide, there is an element that has amphoteric properties. Amphotericity is understood as the ability of compounds to exhibit acidic and basic properties, depending on the conditions.

1.React with acids to form salt and water:

ZnO + 2HCl → ZnCl2 + H2O.

2.They react with solid alkalis (during fusion), forming as a result of the reaction a salt - sodium zincate and water:

ZnO + 2NaOH → Na2 ZnO2 + H2O.

Physical Properties

Liquid (SO3, Mn2O7); Solid (K2O, Al2O3, P2O5); Gaseous (CO2, NO2, SO2).

The interaction of metals with oxidizing acids:

Zn + 4HNO3(conc.) → Zn(NO3)2 + 2NO2 + 2H2O

Under the action of water-removing substances on acids and salts:

2KClO4 + H2SO4(conc) → K2SO4 + Cl2O7 + H2O

The interaction of salts of weak unstable acids with stronger acids:

NaHCO3 + HCl → NaCl + H2O + CO2

Nomenclature of oxides

The word "oxide" followed by the name of the chemical element in the genitive case. When several oxides are formed, their names indicate its oxidation state with a Roman numeral in brackets immediately after the name. Other names of oxides are often used according to the number of oxygen atoms: if the oxide contains only one oxygen atom, then it is called monoxide, monoxide or nitrous if two - dioxide or dioxide, if three - then trioxide or trioxide etc.

Video lesson 2: Chemical properties of basic oxides

Lecture: Characteristic chemical properties of oxides: basic, amphoteric, acidic

oxides- binary compounds (complex substances) consisting of oxygen with an oxidation state of -2 and another element.

According to their chemical ability to form salts, all oxides are divided into two groups:

  • salt-forming,
  • non-salt-forming.

Salt-forming, in turn, are divided into three groups: basic, acidic, amphoteric. The non-salt-forming ones include carbon monoxide (II) CO, nitric oxide (I) N2O, nitric oxide (II) NO, silicon oxide (II) SiO.

Basic oxides- these are oxides that exhibit basic properties, formed by alkali and alkaline earth metals in oxidation states +1, +2, as well as transition metals in lower oxidation states.

Bases correspond to this group of oxides: K 2 O - KOH; BaO - Ba (OH) 2; La 2 O 3 - La (OH) 3.

Acid oxides- These are oxides that exhibit acidic properties, formed by typical non-metals, as well as some transition metals in oxidation states from +4 to +7.

Acids correspond to this group of oxides: SO 3 -H 2 SO 4; CO 2 - H 2 CO 3; SO 2 - H 2 SO 3, etc.

Amphoteric oxides- these are oxides that exhibit basic and acidic properties, formed by transition metals in oxidation states +3, +4. Excl.: ZnO, BeO, SnO, PbO.

This group of oxides corresponds to amphoteric bases: ZnO - Zn(OH) 2; Al 2 O 3 - Al (OH) 3.

From the above table, the following can be summarized:

    Basic oxides of the most active metals interact with water, forming strong bases - alkalis. Basic oxides of less active metals do not react with water under normal conditions. All oxides of this group always react with acids, forming salts and water. And they do not react with bases.

    Acid oxides mostly react with water. But not everyone reacts under normal conditions. All oxides of this group react with bases, forming salts and water. They do not react with acids.

    Basic and acidic oxides are able to react with each other, with the subsequent formation of a salt.

    Amphoteric oxides have basic and acidic properties. Therefore, they react with both acids and bases to form salts and water. Amphoteric oxides react with acidic and basic oxides. They also interact with each other. Most often, these chemical reactions occur when heated to form salts.
