Q. Among $ A{{l}_{2}}{{O}_{3}},Si{{O}_{2}},{{P}_{2}}{{O}_{3}} $ and $ S{{O}_{2}} $ the correct order of acid strength is

BHUBHU 2011

Solution:

With decrease in size from $ Al $ to S, the basic nature of oxide decrease and acidic nature increases. Hence, the order of acid strength is as
$ A{{l}_{2}}{{O}_{3}} < Si{{O}_{2}} < {{P}_{2}}{{O}_{3}} < S{{O}_{2}} $
