Name all elements that form basic oxodes

Dear Student,

All the metals present in nature form Basic Oxide.

Reason:

Metals have low ionization enthalpy so they have greater tendency to lose the electrons while nonmetals have high ionization enthalpy so they do not lose the electrons infect they have greater tendency to gain the electrons. Similar is the case with their respective oxides. According to the Lewis concepts, bases are the electron pair donors and hence metal oxides are basic in nature.

Hope this information clears your doubts about the topic.

Looking forward to hear from you again!!

Regards
