Which of the following is an acidic oxide?
Show Hint
- CrO\(_3\)
- CrO
- V\(_2\)O\(_4\)
- V\(_2\)O\(_5\)
- V\(_2\)O\(_3\)
The Correct Option is A
Solution and Explanation
CrO\(_3\) is an acidic oxide. Acidic oxides are those that, when dissolved in water, form an acidic solution. CrO\(_3\) (chromium trioxide) is an example of a strong acidic oxide.
Thus, the correct answer is (A).
Top Questions on Oxides
Given below are two statements:
Statement (I): An element in the extreme left of the periodic table forms acidic oxides.
Statement (II): Acid is formed during the reaction between water and oxide of a reactive element present in the extreme right of the periodic table.
In the light of the above statements, choose the correct answer from the options given below:- Oxides of aluminium and zinc are :
- Among \(\text{CrO}\), \(\text{Cr}_2\text{O}_3\), and \(\text{CrO}_3\), the sum of spin-only magnetic moment values of basic and amphoteric oxides is ______ \( \times 10^{-2} \, \text{BM} \) (nearest integer).
Given: Atomic number of Cr is 24. - Among the following oxides of p-block elements, the number of oxides having amphoteric nature is: \[\text{Cl}_2\text{O}_7, \, \text{CO}, \, \text{PbO}_2, \, \text{N}_2\text{O}, \, \text{NO}, \, \text{Al}_2\text{O}_3, \, \text{SiO}_2, \, \text{N}_2\text{O}_5, \, \text{SnO}_2\]
