An alkali metal that reacts more vigorously with water is a 4: Group 1 36
more reactive metal. Elements
1. When blue litmus paper turns red, the solution formed 4: Group 17 40
shows acidic property Elements
2. When blue litmus paper turns white, the solution formed
shows bleaching property.
The appearance of a brown solid shows formation of 4: Group 17 41
iron(III) halides. Elements
1. Oxide that dissolves in water to form solution with pH 6: Electrolysis of 62
less than 7 is acidic and pH more than 7 is alkaline. Aqueous Solution
2. Oxide that can dissolve in an acid exhibits basic
properties.
3. Oxide that can dissolve in an alkali exhibits acidic
properties.
4. Oxide that can dissolve in both acid and alkali exhibits
amphoteric properties
