Answer 1

Answer:

Non-metal oxides are called acidic oxides because when a non-metal reacts with oxygen, it gives an oxide which on dissolution with water gives an acid.

Answer 2

Answer:

NONitrogen monoxideN2O3Dinitrogen trioxideCOCarbon monoxideCO2Carbon dioxide

Explanation:

All nonmetals form covalent oxides with oxygen, which react with water to form acids or with bases to form salts. Most nonmetal oxides are acidic and form oxyacids, which in turn yield hydronium ions (H3O+) in aqueous solution.
