Question

on moving from left to right across a period, baic character of oxides increases. why??
​

Answer 1

Answer:

since the oxides of non metals are acidic. thus it can be said, along a period from left to right basic character decreases while on moving downward, the basic character increases due to an increase in metallic character.

Answer 2

Answer:

on moving left to right in period size of atom decreases resulting in more non metallic character. oxides of non metal r acidic. so acidic character increases and basic character decreases.

ur question is little wrong basic character cannot increase left to right in period
