Question

5.
An element X' is forming an acidic oxide. Its position in mordern periodic table will be​

Answer 1

Answer: (d) Group 16 and Period 3

Explanation: Non-metals are acidic in nature and group 16 has non-metal elements in it. In group 1 and 2 we have metals which are generally basic in nature and in group 13 we have metalliods. So therefore option (d) is the correct answer.

Answer 2

Answer:

Period 3 and Group 16

Explanation:

Non-metals are naturally acidic, and group 16 contains non-metal elements. Metals in groups 1 and 2 are often basic, while metalloids are found in group 13. Also, Non-metals, which are found in group 16 of the current periodic table, produce acidic oxides. Amphoteric oxides are formed by group 13 elements such as aluminium. Basic oxides are made up of elements from Groups 1 and 2. The elements oxygen, sulphur, selenium, tellurium, and polonium make up the group 16 elements of the current periodic table. Because many elements may be recovered from sulphide or oxide ores, these elements are also known as chalcogens or ore-forming elements.
