प्रश्न
Anirudh took two metal oxides: aluminium oxide and magnesium oxide, as shown in the pictures given below. But he forgot to label them. How will you guide/help Anirudh to identify the oxides and label them?
लघु उत्तरीय
उत्तर १
Aqueous solution of magnesium oxide turns red litmus to blue. Aluminium oxide is amphoteric and insoluble in water. Thus, it does not change the colour of either blue or red litmus.
