b) Both assertion and reason are true but the reason is not correct Explanation of assertion.
- Non-metallic oxides are acidic in nature because they react with the base to form salt and water. and metallic oxides would be basic in nature.
- This can also be proven by the litmus paper test where non-metal oxides when reacting with water will form acids and turn blue litmus paper to red. So, the Assertion is correct but the Reason is incorrect.
