उत्तर
They react with acids and can even react with hot concentrated alkalis to form hydrogen and soluble salt.
Zn + 2NaOH → Na2ZnO2 + H2
2Al + 6NaOH→ 2Na2Al O3 + 3H2
Oxides and hydroxides of zinc and aluminum are amphoteric. They react with both bases and acids to give salt and water.
ZnO + 2HCl → ZnCl2 + H2O
ZnO + 2NaOH →Na2ZnO2 + H2O
