Which oxides react with boric acid?

Question

Hello friends! Could you help me?

I carrying out an important research for my master thesis. I have two questions.

1- Which oxides react with boric acid?
2- Does boric acid react with calcium oxide, magnesium oxide, nickel oxide, silver oxide, cobalt oxide, cadmium oxide, barium oxide, antimony oxide, potassium oxide, lead oxide or iron oxide?  These questions that I have been searching for two weeks and haven&rsquo;t found yet. Is there anyone who knows about this subjects?

Thank you in advance.

Answer

Boric acid reacts with basic oxides. Basic oxides are typically oxides of metals, such as:

Sodium oxide (Na₂O)
Calcium oxide (CaO)
Magnesium oxide (MgO)
These oxides react with boric acid to form borates. For example, the reaction of boric acid with sodium oxide produces sodium borate.
