I deleted this "Discussion" section since it seemed rather un-encyclopedic and vague:

In some cases, a mixed oxide X Y oxide can be contrasted with a compound X Yate. In most cases, common sense can prevail. For example, the compound sodium nitrate is not described as 'sodium nitrogen oxide'; even less so, would it be called 'nitrogen sodate'. With this, we have some common sense, that the compound is a nitrate, not a 'sodate', and not even a mixed oxide. In some cases, the conclusion is not so obvious. For example, some compounds are called 'titanates'; are these 'titanates', or maybe X titanium oxides? In this case, the result depends on some knowledge of structure: in general, Xates have the Xate ion; a mixed oxide will not have such. |
What can we do about it? All the best, --Jorge Stolfi (talk) 06:04, 2 July 2009 (UTC)[reply]
Base + Metal -> Metal Mixed Oxide + H2
Eg: NaOH + Al/Zn -> NaAlO2/NaZnO2 + H2
