Q. The number of acidic oxides from the following is_____.
$\overset{}{N_{2} O_{3} , A}s_{2}O_{3},Bi_{2}O_{3},P_{4}O_{6},Sb_{2}O_{3}$

Solution:

Acidic oxides are the oxides of non-metals (Groups $14-17$) and these acid anhydrides form acids with water. $N_{2}O_{3}$ and $P_{4}O_{6}$ are purely acidic oxides. Nitrogen trioxide oxide forms nitrous acid and phosphorus trioxide forms phosphorous acid.
