Answer:

ZnO(s) + 2HCl(aq) ------> ZnCl2(aq) + H2O(l)

Na2O(s) + 2HCl(aq) -----> 2NaCl(aq) + H2O(l)

Rb2O(s) + 2HCl(aq) -----> 2RbCl(aq) + H2O(l)

NiO(s) + 2HCl(aq) --------> NiCl2(aq) + H2O(l)

MgO(s) + 2HI(aq) -----> MgI2(aq) + H2O(l)

Na2O(s) + 2HI(aq) -----> 2NaI(aq) + H2O(l)

CaO(s) + 2HI(aq) ----> CaI2(aq) + H2O(l)

Explanation:

Let us recall that the oxides of metals are basic in nature. These basic metal oxides can react with acids to form salt and water only.

In the reactions above, HCl and HI were reacted with different metal oxides and the corresponding salts of each metal and water was formed as shown.

Develop a product by using principles of science to encounter environment related problems

Oxana [17]

It is because we are, this is the first time in human history, where we have technology and science is widely accepted, without being ridiculed by religious figures.
Science can provide us with enough detailed knowledge about nature to solve and prevent environmental problems. ... It is possible to prevent pollution in the future and develop 'clean' industrial processes that have no environmental impacts.
Develop a product by using principles of science to encounter environment related problems
It is currently believed that science and technology can provide effective solutions to most, if not all, environmental problems facing western industrial societies. ... It can therefore be concluded that science and technology have only very limited potential in solving current and future environmental problems.
Ways Technology is Helping the Environment
We use Less Energy to do Things.
Energy Production is Becoming Cleaner.
Clean Energy Systems are More Effective.
Food Production is Becoming More Eco-friendly
Recycling is Reducing Waste and Pollution.
Cities are Becoming Less Polluted
We Are Becoming More Aware Of Our Effect On The Planet
