उत्तर
II and III
Explanation:
Some metal oxides, such as aluminium oxide, zinc oxide shows both acidic as well as basic behaviour. Such metal oxides that react with both acids and bases to produce salt and water are known as amphoteric oxides.
Aluminium oxide reacts with base as follows:
\[\ce{Al2O3 + 2NaOH -> \underset{(Sodium aluminate)}{2NaAlO2} + H2O}\]
ZnO is an oxide that can react with base, as shown by the equation given below:
\[\ce{ZnO + 2NaoH -> Na2ZnO2 + H2O}\]
