Metal oxides
For example, vanadium oxide (VO₂) is an amphoteric oxide, dissolving in acid to give the blue vanadyl ion, [VO]²⁺, and in base to yield the yellow-brown hypovanadate ion, [V₄O₉]²⁻. Amphoterism among the main group oxides is primarily found with the metalloidal elements or their close neighbours.
