Explanation:
Note: Most nonmetal oxides are acidic, but not all. ... Such a molecule readily loses a proton from one of its hydroxy groups because the resulting anion is highly stabilized by the oxygen atoms and the electronegative nonmetal atom. Therefore, it's acidic.

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 CO2 and SO2 react with each other
