Question

The oxide of an element with electronic configuration 1s 2s 2p 3s 3p is:
a) acidic
b) basic
c) amphoteric
d) neutral​

Answer 1

Answer:

It Depends on the number of electrons in it's shells but you haven't provided that in your question  I'll give you some

Anyway

1s2 2s2 2p6 3s2 3p6  Does not form oxides,

1s2 2s2 2p6 3s2 3p5  Acidic oxides

1s2 2s2 2p6 3s2 3p4 Acidic Oxides

1s2 2s2 2p6 3s2 3p3 Acidic Oxides

1s2 2s2 2p6 3s2 3p2 Amphoteric(very weakly acidic)

1s2 2s2 2p6 3s2 3p1  Amphoteric

1s2 2s2 2p6 3s2         Basic

1s2 2s2 2p6 3s1            Basic
