Question

classify the following into acidic and basic oxides: Na2O,SO2,MgO,CO2

Answer 1

acidic so2 co2
base na2o mgo

Answer 2

Classification the following into acidic and basic oxides:

• $Na_2O$ is known as the basic oxide, MgO is a basic oxide, $SO_2$ is known as the acidic oxide and $CO_2$ is an acidic oxide.

• $Na_2O$ is considered as a basic oxide because when it reacts with a acid, it undergoes a neutralisation reaction.

• The reaction of$Na_2O$ with water or$H_2O$ is given by

        $Na_2O + H_2O \rightarrow 2 NaOH.$.

• The same is the case with the compound MgO which is also a basic oxide. Acid oxides like the $SO_2$ are the acid anhydrides of the compound sulfurous acid.

• Its reaction with water is given by

        $SO_2 + H2O\rightarrow H_2SO_3.$
