An oxide is a binary compound obtained when oxygen reacts with another element. On the premise of their oxygen content, oxides can be extensively arranged into mixed oxides and simple oxides.
A Simple Oxides
Simple oxides are oxides that carry only that number of oxygen atoms as is allowed by the normal valency of its metal.
Example: H2O, MgO& Al2O3.
B Mixed Oxides
Two simple oxides combine to form mixed oxides.
Example: Lead dioxide (PbO2) and lead monoxide (PbO) together form the mixed oxide Red lead (Pb3O4).
Ferric oxide (Fe2O3) and ferrous oxide (FeO) together form the mixed oxide Ferro-ferric oxide (Fe3O4).
