Answer:

The correct option is: 4. soluble in both acidic and basic solutions

Explanation:

Oxide is a chemical compound formed by an element with oxygen. In such compounds, the oxygen is generally present in the -2 oxidation state.

Whereas, hydroxide is a chemical compound formed by an element with hydroxyl group (-OH).

<em>Oxides and hydroxides of some elements are </em><em>amphoteric</em><em> in nature.</em> <u><em>Such compounds can behave as an acid in basic medium and behave as a base in acidic medium.</em></u>

<u>Therefore, amphoteric oxides and hydroxides are soluble in both acidic and basic solutions.</u>

What system of units is used by only a small number of countries in the world, including the U.S.?
Aleks04 [339]

Answer:

The correct answer is the imperial system.

Explanation:

Only three countries in the world, that is, the United States, Myanmar, and Liberia use the imperial system. These include measurements in the form of inches, ounces, Fahrenheit, and feet. In the imperial system, the distances, height, weight, or area measurements are used eventually that traced back to everyday items or parts of the body.  

In comparison to other metric systems, the units used in the imperial system are not further differentiated easily into parts of hundreds or thousands, and are thus, regarded of less use in comparison to other metric systems by some. The real follower of the imperial system at present in the world is the United States.
