  2. Amphoterism - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Amphoterism

    Many metals (such as zinc, tin, lead, aluminium, and beryllium) form amphoteric oxides or hydroxides. Aluminium oxide (Al 2 O 3) is an example of an amphoteric oxide. Amphoterism depends on the oxidation states of the oxide. Amphoteric oxides include lead(II) oxide and zinc oxide, among many others. [5]

  3. Antimony - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Antimony

    Antimony also forms a mixed-valence oxide, antimony tetroxide (Sb 2 O 4), which features both Sb(III) and Sb(V). [26] Unlike oxides of phosphorus and arsenic, these oxides are amphoteric, do not form well-defined oxoacids, and react with acids to form antimony salts. Antimonous acid Sb(OH) 3 is unknown, but the conjugate base sodium antimonite ...

  4. Antimony trioxide - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Antimony_trioxide

    Antimony(III) oxide is an amphoteric oxide. It dissolves in aqueous sodium hydroxide solution to give the meta-antimonite NaSbO 2, which can be isolated as the trihydrate. Antimony(III) oxide also dissolves in concentrated mineral acids to give the corresponding salts, which hydrolyzes upon dilution with water. [7]

  5. Post-transition metal - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Post-transition_metal

    The oxide in its preferred oxidation state (As 2 O 3, +3) is amphoteric, [n 16] as is the corresponding oxoacid in aqueous solution (H 3 AsO 3) and congener sulfide (As 2 S 3). Arsenic forms a series of anionic arsenates such as Na 3 AsO 3 and PbHAsO 4, and Zintl phases such as Na 3 As, Ca 2 As and SrAs 3. Antimony is a soft (MH 3.0) and ...

    The common oxide of arsenic (As 2 O 3) is acidic but weakly amphoteric. Antimony, showing its brilliant lustre. Antimony is a silver-white solid with a blue tint and a brilliant lustre. It is stable in air and moisture at room temperature. Antimony has a density of 6.697 g/cm 3, and is moderately hard (MH 3.0; about the same as copper). It has ...
