Question

How do non-metals react with oxygen? What is the nature of their oxides? ​

Answer 1

Answer:

here is the answer

Explanation:

Non-metals react with oxygen to form non-metal oxides. Non-metal oxides are acidic in nature. They turn blue litmus to red. ... If an element forms a basic oxide,then the element will be a metal.

Answer 2

When non-metals react with oxygen the non-metallic oxide is formed. Non-metallic oxides are acidic. They form an acidic solution when dissolved in water, turning litmus solution to red colour. Non-metal oxides like CO2and SO2 react with water and give acids.
