Question

Arrange the following oxides in order of increasing acidic character Na 2 O , Cl 2 O 7, As 2 O 3, N 2 O (A) Na 2 O < As 2 O 3< N 2 O < Cl 2 O 7 (B) Na 2 O < N 2 O < As 2 O 3< Cl 2 O 7 (C) N 2 O < Cl 2 O 7< Na 2 O < As 2 O 3 (D) Cl 2 O 7< N 2 O < As 2 O 3< Na 2 O

In a period, the nature oxide varies from basic to acidic and in a group, basic nature increases or acidic nature decreases.

N a_{2} O \Rightarrow

Strongly basic

C l_{2} O_{7} \Rightarrow

Strongly acidic

N_{2} O \Rightarrow

Neutral oxide

A s_{2} O_{3} \Rightarrow

Slightly basic

Thus, acidic character :

N a_{2} O < A s_{2} O_{3} < N_{2} O < C l_{2} O_{7}

Q. Arrange the following oxides in order of increasing acidic character $N a_{2} O, C l_{2} O_{7}, A s_{2} O_{3}, N_{2} O$

$N a_{2} O < A s_{2} O_{3} < N_{2} O < C l_{2} O_{7}$

$N a_{2} O < N_{2} O < A s_{2} O_{3} < C l_{2} O_{7}$

$N_{2} O < C l_{2} O_{7} < N a_{2} O < A s_{2} O_{3}$

$C l_{2} O_{7} < N_{2} O < A s_{2} O_{3} < N a_{2} O$

Q. Arrange the following oxides in order of increasing acidic character Na2​O,Cl2​O7​,As2​O3​,N2​O

Na2​O<As2​O3​<N2​O<Cl2​O7​

Na2​O<N2​O<As2​O3​<Cl2​O7​

N2​O<Cl2​O7​<Na2​O<As2​O3​

Cl2​O7​<N2​O<As2​O3​<Na2​O

In a period, the nature oxide varies from basic to acidic and in a group, basic nature increases or acidic nature decreases. Na2​O⇒ Strongly basic Cl2​O7​⇒ Strongly acidic N2​O⇒ Neutral oxide As2​O3​⇒ Slightly basic Thus, acidic character : Na2​O<As2​O3​<N2​O<Cl2​O7​

Q. Arrange the following oxides in order of increasing acidic character $N a_{2} O, C l_{2} O_{7}, A s_{2} O_{3}, N_{2} O$

$N a_{2} O < A s_{2} O_{3} < N_{2} O < C l_{2} O_{7}$

$N a_{2} O < N_{2} O < A s_{2} O_{3} < C l_{2} O_{7}$

$N_{2} O < C l_{2} O_{7} < N a_{2} O < A s_{2} O_{3}$

$C l_{2} O_{7} < N_{2} O < A s_{2} O_{3} < N a_{2} O$
