When an acid is treated with a metal oxide, a salt and water are obtained.
The general reaction can be written as follows:
Acid + Metal oxide → Salt + Water
For example, when a small amount of copper oxide is added to sulphuric acid, colour of the solution becomes blue and the copper oxide dissolves. The blue colour of the solution indicates the formation of copper (II) sulphate.
The reaction taking place can be written as follows:
CuO(s) + H2SO4(aq) → CuSO4(aq) + H2O(l)
