B2O3+3H2O2B(OH)3

Al2O3 is amphoteric oxide because it reacts with both base and acid.

Al2O3+6HCl2AlCl3+3H2OAl2O3+2NaOH+3H2O2NaAl(OH)4

Gallium oxide is amphoteric because it reacts with both acid and base.

Ga2O3+2NaOH+3H2O2Na[Ga(OH)4]Ga2O3+6HCl2GaCl3+3H2O

Basic oxide are those that form base when reacts with water. Indium and thallium are basic oxide as they form base when reacts with water.
