प्रश्न
When heated in air, the alkali metals form various oxides. Mention the oxides formed by Li, Na and K.
उत्तर
Alkali metals forms oxide when reacted with air. Lithium forms monoxide, sodium forms peroxide and potassium forms superoxide.
\[\ce{4Li + O2 -> 2Li2O}\]
\[\ce{Na + O2 -> Na2O2}\]
\[\ce{L + O2 -> KO2}\]
